Im gonna open a LanHouse/InternetCafe/Sports-Bar(all in one) sometime soon...
Ive been cheking prices and trying to get the best performance/price config for my pcs
I think im gonna use like 10-12 gaming rigs and 5 internet rigs
Im a regular/pro gamer for years, so i think i know what to cut or not to cut while building this Pcs and...of course price is an issue
Im still deciding wether i should build a s754 or a s939 platform... s754 is cheaper but looking at s939 is more future proof...
the basic config is this one, and every other component is the cheapest possible, but of course i want it to run the latest games like COD2, BF2, HL2, DOOM3, QUAKE4, UT2004, CS Source, DOD Source, WARHAMMER 40k, etc... and some classics like Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne, StarCraft, Q3,etc...
heres the basic config
CPU-Athlon64 3000
MEM- 1GB DDR400(Value RAM)
HD- WD 40 GB 8MB CACHE IDE
MONITOR- 17" CRT~
Display Card-Gainward 6600 GT 256MB
The final price is sitting at aprox 1.100 USD(i know its expensive, but im near SouthAfrica, some hardware here is alot more expensive than in your countries...hell a 7800GTX is 1000 USD here)
So considering the price difference between a 6600GT 256MB and 6600GT 128MB wich is about 75 USD over here...
I cant find any bechmarks running the 256MB version, so i cant decide... considering that games need more RAM this days, and i prolly want most games to run at 1024x768 real smooth... The problem is ive read somewhere that 6600 isnt capable of using above 128MB... so i dont know wich one is faster and if really the 128Mb is enough...at least for today(what about later?)
Considering im saving/spending 750-900 USD in total costs between the 2, what u guys think? what about going s754 or s939?
