ken_cinder Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 I'd say about $1,100 to $1,300 worth in USD AHAHAHA! The CPU alone is probably worth near a grand. The new D's are retarded expensive. I too would have went with an AMD 64 CPU, Intels latest CPUs are terrible performers and nuclear furnaces in comparison. No offense Robbbert, still a way better performing system than mine.......just not "my" choice if I were to upgrade. The only way a box like that would be in that price range, is if it was some POS Dell, Compaq, HP or other store bought pile of garbage loaded with dollar store peripherals.
Wizard Posted December 2, 2005 Posted December 2, 2005 Intels still own everythign that isn't related to gaming. So I applaud thee. AMd for gaming needs.
Robert Posted December 3, 2005 Author Posted December 3, 2005 OK seems like it's a good computer. Even NRX works on it, lol.
wacko_jacko Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 I wouldn't of got the Powercolor X850XT 256mb, since a 7800GT and even the GTX isn't much more expensive. Other than that, its a pretty good system, though i would have got an AMD 64 since its cheaper than Intel Chips, runs cooler and is better for games.
damulta Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 Don't roms tho work under cpu more than Video cards.........I know pc gaming the video card eats up around 90% of the work but im unsure about emu's I like Ati btter than N. Reson being already ready for vista aswell even tho u have to force the xp driver......I can play openGl and Dx games in Vista can u so that with N comp...........Only thing is creative adugy 2 does'nt like vista yet
Gryph Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 You're basing your preference of ATI over Nvidia because of the lack of drivers for a beta OS? Just to let you know, Nvidia does have Vista drivers.
Ghosty Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 Woops, wrong tread. EDIT02: wTH. I click on "view new posts" and get this!? HA!
Robert Posted April 28, 2007 Author Posted April 28, 2007 Strange... I'll close it so it doesn't happen again.
