Hardware
Posted: Mon Jul 14, 2008 9:20 pm
Hardware is closely connected to the gaming so I think this topic will fit.
I'm starting it because I wan't to enchance my PC a bit in several coming days and wanted too see if there will be some opinions (good and bad) on my choosings...
So, currently I'm planning to replace:
-CPU to AMD AM2 Athlon 64bit 6000+ (it has 3 GHz of timing)
-MoBo to Gigabyte GA-MA790X-DS4 AMD790X (it supports Ati CrossFire)
-Graphics card to Asus PCI-E Radeon EAH3870 512MB 256Bit DDR4 (it's slighly worse than for example GF 8800 GTX and much cheaper and it supports CrossFire as well)
-RAM to Patriot DDRII 2GB (2x1GB) KH 800MHz CL5 PSD22G800K (Dual-Channel; for now I didn't see a game that would require more than 2 gigs)
-PowerSupply to Pentagram Silent Force PSF 500-A12S (500 Watts should be enough for this set... I hope)
And Expand HDD by adding a 160 GB Seagate to already had Maxtor 250 GB
So what do you think about it? I tried to be as much reasonable with this set, as possible...
