As im sure some of you know, my 1.2ghz athlon died in a blaze of glory the other night... what better time than now for a nice little upgrade...

This is what i picked up:/

1. AMD Athlon 2400+ (2ghz) CPU
2. SL-75FRN-L, nForce2 Mobo
3. 450 Watt Allied True Power PS?
4. Mini R/C Racer (Why the hell not?)

Came to $316 with overnight shipping

think she'll run well?

Yeah those mini R/C Racers run pretty good, just not too much distance on them...
 
Ugh, I've had nothing but problems with AMD motherboard chipsets. Always seems to me to have a problem running one program or another....they've pushed me to Intel for good this time I think.

BTW: Good Luck with your rig.
