Hi all,
Tossing up the idea of putting together a new PC, sold me old one a while ago and have been running with just my laptop but it's just not doin the job for gaming
I've decided with the following components,
Core 2 Duo E8500
4Gb of RAM, Gskill looks to be the go
500Gb HDD
Radeon 4850 512mb
19" Viewsonic VX922 monitor that I have lying around 1280x1024
Thermaltake 430w powersupply that I have lying around
And got a copy of Vista lying around as well hence the 4GB
Now I'm looking for a motherboard and haven't been following them for a while so not sure what to look for. So I'm reaching out for a recommendation, heres a few notes about what I'm after.
-Don't need crossfire
-Note sure if I should get DDR2/3, but leaning towards DDR2
-Might do a little overclock down the track but it's not a deal breaker
-I have a RAID card for the array that I use so don't need that
-Cheap but good Quality.
Any recomendations would be greatly appreciated
