Hi all,
Haven't been around for a while, and I've lost track of all of the Ram & Mobos & Processors & what goes where w/what... it seems to get more complicated all the time! Could someone set me straight?! Here's what I want, I will be getting it in a month or so (after the P4 3.2 GHz is available):
P4 2.8 or 3.06 GHz 800MHz FSB w/HT (depends on price)
P4 Mobo - OK, need some help here. I need something of good quality (I'm guessing Asus, Abit, or MSI?) That supports 800MHz FSB and will allow me to someday upgrade my processor to a faster speed if I so desire. What are some specific full model name mobos to look for that meet these requirements? What would you guys recommend? Please include approx price info.
1GB RAM - Oh wow, here's where I'm lost. DDR333, DDR400, PC2700 - PC3500, etc etc... someone help! I want the fastest, highest quality, lifetime warranty, best RAM available, either in a 1GB DIMM or two 512MB DIMMS. Obviously it will be for use with a P4 system... What specifically should I get, and what kind of price am I looking at?
As for the other components, I'm good... but if I could get some help on the above it would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks so much,
Dan
PS - I forgot to mention that I will *NOT* be doing any overclocking, at all...
