LS,
My neighbour gave me 3 (half) old systems, is one or a combination of the parts worth assembly and/or upgrading?
Asus p5s800-vm (no cpu, 2x256mb kvr333 pc2700)
asrock-p4i65g (p4 1,8ghz)
msi- ms-6788 i865/pe/g/i848p (working system, by times inresponsive/unstable):
p4 prescott 478 3,2Ghz / 2x512mb kvr400 pc3200, Asus ati radeon HD 3600 series 512mb RV635 on a 400watt power supply.
seagate barracude 7200.11 500gb sata
maxtor 40gb ata
samsung 60gb ata
2x LG super multi dvd rewriter ( 1x ata and 1x sata)
1x LG DVD-ROM ata
a pile of fans, cpu coolers(evercool, spire), cables etc.
To be more specific: Which is the best of this three motherboards and Is it worth buying the needed parts to make it work? Is a 775 cpu generally faster than a 478? I would prefer to make the asus mobo work with a series 7 nvidia. I'm not a big fan of the graphic card provided or ati in general.
Thanks in advance.
I forgot to mention these are all AGP 8x systems
