This PC has a KT600 motherboard from Gigabyte in it (GA-7VT600 1394) and 512Mb of DDR333. I'm thinking of adjusting it to 3200+ speeds, and later this year i'm going to upgrade the CPU and motherboard.
I was out of a job for 6 months, but I *finally* got another Pharmacy Technician job! Woo hoo!
I'm getting a 9800 Pro from MSI in a few weeks, beceause i'm going to ask for Far Cry for my 21st birthday (in August). I have been browsing memory stuff, and I was figuring on OCZ or Mushkin RAM. If I may upgrade later, what RAM should I get? I don't know if I want to buy the highest end stuff around, but maybe close to it. By the time I buy RAM, I should have near 5000 in the bank (saving up...for a reason), and I only have a $40/mo cell phone bill. Is Mushkin's Level II DDR 400 better than OCZ's EL ram? How do you guys feel about the Enhanced Bandwidth RAM that OCZ has that I have read about...do you think that would be the best choice? I'm not sure if I should choose DDR400 or DDR433, what do you think?
I'm going to be building it up to be a high-end system, since i'm going to get one of the 12ms 17" LCD screens in September as well. Definitely don't need any help with that one
. How about Corsair's XMS series? I notice it seems to be more expensive than the other two on newegg. Is this a justified price increase, or is this just overly expensive? I did search and found some stuff, but I wanted fresh answers .
Thanks for your help!
