so im pretty much an idoit... The hd that i have are not SATA. the biostar only has one PATA slot so i cant plug in my hds and my cd/dvd roms at the same time. pretty weaksauce. Also what is a good aftermarket heat sink for the cpu. thanks
ya that was kinda the plan the gradual upgrade.... I just ordered everything for the mobo, cpu, and graphics card for $267. not to shabby if you ask me.
sweet im going to get the biostar... and a xfx 8600gt video card and i think that should be good enough to get some kills in BF2. thanks for the help... going to order tomorrow. any last min suggestions let me know. thanks
i think im going to go with the 3600+ the question is do i get the gigabyte or the biostar??? the biostar is open box special for $49. the s3 is 69$. thanks.
hey thanks for all the input... ill have to check out that E2160 a little more. I just want a cheap fast computer lol. i think you guys can understand that.
how soon is soon? within the next couple days lol.
what about this.... its pretty cheap and i think it would be alright for what im doing ???
cpu: AMD Athlon 64 X2 3600+ Brisbane 1.9GHz 2 x 512KB L2 Cache

I have about $150-200 budget for a cpu and mobo... wanting to upgrade my video card to pci express... so i need a new mobo w/ddr2... and i want a budget cpu to go along with it. was looking e4300... but idk. I play BF2 and i just want something that will help me out a bit. i have a gig of ram...
Ok... i think right about the e4300 w/ GA-965P-S3 mobo. any other suggestions on ram or a dif motherboard?
