title says it all. here's the system.
Likely, not going to be a duron
becuase no mobo's are out yet.. we'll see.
-500mhz Athlon processor - 600mhz Duron, if the mobo comes available
-Gigabyte 71XE or Microstar 6195 (both Irongate) or maybe the A7V when it comes out (grr..)
-PC133 RAM
-Soundblaster Live or Aureal Vortex 2 Superquad
-ASUS V6800 GEFORCE 256 32meg DDR
That's all I'm worried about, the Geforce DDR price is still a bit too high, hopefully it'll come down.
I'm debating soundcards, becuase Aureal's future is uncertain. we will see what happens there..
IF no Socket A motherboards become available at all, I'm going to be forced to get a Slot A. I'm not going KX133 in that case, becuase I want to ensure at least some upgradeability with the CPU. but with the Irongate, it's been picky about RAM, however I'll try to get the dealer to guarrentee me that the PC133 will work with the Irongate.
IF a Socket A mobo comes out, that totally ends my problem, becuase the CPU will be upgradeable no problem, and there shouldn't be any problems with RAM.
what do you guys think?
