Hey guys! You helped me put together a good rig that has lasted (un-updated) since 2004! Thanks!
Now I am looking to upgrade again and seeking your help. Here's the skinny:
I don't want top of the line, just a good system that is upgradeable in the future.
-MoBo with good future upgrade capability
-dual core processor
-PCI video card
-At least 2 GB ram
I am thinking to go with the earliest version of Intel Dual Core - only because the current (top of the line) Dual Core's look to be faster than AMD (and I will eventually upgrade this MoBo in a year or so). So looking for a MoBo that will support the earlier Dual core as well as be upgradeable to the Core 2 Dual...
I am going to keep my current Hard Drive (WD1200).
Onboard sound is ok - I am not sporting a good speaker system at this time.
Thoughts?
