Hey everyone.
i am planning on getting rid of my old sh*t P4 and upgrading
I only use my computer for web-surfing, since this computer cant even handle solitaire. I dont need a really good gaming computer but i will probably start playing more once i get this set up. Also i am planning on using my 37inch lcd as a monitor, and planning to use it as a media center.
I do not know what to build tho. I am going amd because of my budget also for their upgrade-ability. I want to get an AM3 mobo, but deciding which one is the hard choice. I do not know if i should buy the P2 955 or 965, or buy a P2 or athlon 2 with dual or tri core and try unlocking the extra core. I am thinking of going with the athlon2 and waiting for the new hexcores to come out then upgrade then when the prices of the quads drop.
So i need a RAM, graphics card, HD, case, cpu, mobo. Only thing i got is a 550PS and all the retaining wires ( i tried building another rig a few yrs back amd 64, oc'd it n fried the mobo🙁 ).
Any suggestions on a mobo, and if i should get a quad now, or get the athlon and wait, because for what i do anyways probably wont require the extra core or 2
