hey guys i posted on a few other forums like memory and stuff about my computer problems. well im out of options to try to figure out whats wrong so im going to pick up a new powersupply tomorow and a processor/mb in case that doesnt work
my current systems a p4 2.8ghz with hyperthreading, and an asus p4p800 motherboard. ive been outa the loop for just under a year on all this new stuff out so just wanted to know what you guys would recomend i grab. i dont wanna spend a ridiculous amount bu thteres no point in buying the same thing i have now
i wanted to stick with intel because i had bad experiences with AMD in the past. i was looking at something like the p 4 560 but i saw a guide here about how the 500 line is prone to overheating. i certainly dont want that. would it be better to get a regular pentium 4, the 3.4 or whatever the non 500 line is? also whats a good brand of motherboard i should gofor? i dont want an asus again. i heard abits pretty good
could use opinions fast because i'll be picking this stuff up tomorow morning most likely. id like to go for a 500 line but the heat thing concerns me. are theey really that much better than the 478 socket chipset?
id be open to maybe getting an AMD if they have turned around in quality (t bird 1.4 was last amd i had) and if a mb could be recomended. btw the ram i got righ tnow is kingston dual channel DDR400 stuff, a gig of it
tnx in advance
