This is my second build:
AMD 64 3200 Venice @ 2.4 GHz on stock voltage stable
EVGA 133-K8-NF41 Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 SLI ATX AMD Motherboard
1 GIG (2x512) of Ultra PC3200 DDR 400MHz Memory (from old rig)
EVGA 7800GT PCI-E
FSP Group 450 Watt PSU
Lite-On Black 16X DVD-ROM DRIVE (from old rig)
NEC 3500A 16X Double Layer DVD±RW Drive (from old rig)
Ultra Dragon Glossy Black ATX Mid-Tower Case (from old rig)
My first build was:
P4 2.8GHz HT 800 bus (socket 478)
Asus - P4P800E Deluxe - Intel Socket 478 Motherboard
1 GIG (2x512) of Ultra PC3200 DDR 400MHz Memory
XFX GeForce FX 5700 LE / 256MB DDR / AGP 8X
Ultra Titanium 300Watt ATX Power Supply
Lite-On Black 16X DVD-ROM DRIVE
NEC 3500A 16X Double Layer DVD±RW Drive
Ultra Dragon Glossy Black ATX Mid-Tower Case
Since my first build I have learned so much about computers thats its unbelievable. I still got some parts I want to upgrade though that I wish I didnt buy and gotten something different when I first bought my rig. For example my memory, later on I will probably upgrade to 2 GIG of either Gskill or OCZ DDR 500 (2x1) so I can still have T1. Another thing I will need to upgrade later on will be to a sound card (probably X-fi) from my on board sound. But overall I am EXTREMELY happy with my new rig. Games run A LOT better with my new rig. Before I was forced to play on med/low settings and got about 25 fps. But now I can crank up the settings and KICK some ASS. Plus I notice that games are more enjoyable with all the eye candy. For example I played through Half Life 2 again.
