im biulding a new computer for gaming and animation rendering.

my other amd computer takes so freakin long to render. :mad:

and i get discounts from my friend who works at ncix :D

well here are the specs

amd 64 4000
2gig ocz ram
7800gtx xfx
asus a8n-e motherboard
200gb hard drive western digital
CREATIVE SOUNDBLASTER AUDIGY 2 ZS, 24-BIT, 7.1 SOUND CARD
lg dvd burner

have a case and powersupply and keyboard and mouse.

using my samsung lcd tv for display


is this a good setup?

im kind of low on money.

should i wait a bit. for a better cpu. or just get that.

i have a spare amd 64 3500 winchester
 
You're low on money? LOL I just built a new system with a Duron 1.8 GHz, Ti4200, 512 MB RAM, 60 GB HD, etc. Your system seems to rock.
 
well i got a great deal on the sustem except the cpu.

i was just wondering if its a smart move to buy a amd 4000 now or wait till later on for a fx or higher end cpu.

note that im building 3 of these systems for animation and folding. mostly for animation.

should i build that much.

like i rendering like almost everyday. and at least half and hour - hour of film a day.
 
A 4000+ is an extreme waste of money. Either get a 3700+, a 4200+, or a 3200+.

btw, I mean 3700 San diego, 4200 X2, and 3200 Venice.
 
Hrmm, if you're going to be doing animation rendering, I'd suggest not going the route of AMD. Pentiums tend to do better with applications of that nature, assuming of course they're programmed with those crazy Intel features.
 
how about the new window 64bit edition. i herd that p4 cant run on the 64bit. unless you get the realy expensive cpu
 
Interesting the guy says the 4000 is a waste of money even though he doesn't know how much your paying for it. Retard. That is alot of machine. If you can get that for a good price that is plenty of box to do what you want to do.
