For this xmas I plan on seriously upgrading 2year old Compaq. After searching many pc sites and ebay, I have decided that I will be looking for a barebone system for no more than $250.00. I cant pay more than 250 for the barebone system because I am also buying a Geforce 4 ti 4600 (128mb) or a ATI Raedon 9700 =).
What do you guys think of a barebone system with these specs: AMD athlon XP 2000 (1.6ghz), with 3 slots for DDR ram (amount of ram doesn’t matter because I will upgrade to its max) 5 PCI slots and other thingies i dont really know? I will be adding my current hard drive, CD drive, floppy drive and cd writer to the barebone system.
Im hoping that with the 1.6ghz XP, 128mb Geforce card and at least 1 gig of DDR ram, I wont have to upgrade for at least 2years in order to play the meanest games. BTW what are the specs for that anticipated card NVsomething something
What opinions, advice can you guys give me? Thanks ahead of time. Anyone in the custom built pc buisness?
