My MB just crapped out on me ( atleast I think it's the MB) and I was looking at buying a new MB+ possibly a new cpu.
My system:
Duron 850MHZ CPU
Some crappy integrated SIS MB
256 SDRAM
300 Watt Power Supply
I was thinking of an ECS MB for around $70 and a AMD 2200 CPU for about $100. My only concern is if I buy this will I have to shell out for a new Power Supply , DDR Ram etc..? Is it cheap to just buy a new computer?
I am also looking at these options:
Gigabyte GA-7VT600-L and a Barton 2500?
K7S5A +2400
I want something decent that responds to overclocking well. Is this to much to ask for ? Reliable+decent price+ Overclocking capability
I Only use this computer for the odd program that doesn't run on my mac. So I don't want to spend to much money.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Note: I am located in Ontario. All prices are in CAD
