Check it out, I am doing a new build, but it is going to be my back-up build for Folding and just general use.
Now I already have the following:
Case - Bought from local PC store
Hard Drive - Maxtor 80GB ATA133 7200RPM
CD Drive - LITE-ON 24x CD+RW Drive
Video Card - ATI Radeon 9550 128MB 64-bit AGP 8x
Here is what I decided to get:
Gigabyte GA-K8U-939 ATX AMD Motherboard - $59.99
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128307
Patriot Signature Series 1GB (2x512MB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM - $86.95
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820220037
FSP Group AX450 450W Power Supply - $49.99
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817104954
AMD Athlon 64 3000+ Venice 939 1GHz FSB - $137
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819103537
Total: $333.93
Not bad I figure. Here is what I want to do though, I plan to OC this 9550 and have it at low temperatures too. So can anyone direct me towards a cooling solution? The exact model of the card is:
VisionTek Xtasy ATI Radeon 9550 128MB 64-bit AGP 4x/8x
Core Clock: 250MHz
Memory Clock: 200MHz (400MHz Effective)
Pixel Pipes: 4
Fill Rate: 1000M Texels/Sec
Now can anyone direct me towards an aftermarket cooler? The cooling on this card is a standard heatsink, it works decently but I would like to reach some decent OC speeds. Would say some AS5 along with an aftermarket HSF do some damage?
