What would you do??? (suggestions needed)

[Necrosaro420]

I have the cash ready to go, but not sure which to do. Option A)


DFi Nf4 Ultra-D Mobo
AMD64 3200+ 939CPU
Evga 6800 Ultra 256MB Card


OR

http://www.monarchcomputer.com/Merchant...oduct_Code=110441&Category_Code=ALL_NA


Gigabyte GV-3D1 Motherboard
AMD64 3200+ 939CPU
Gigabyte Dual Geforce 6600 GT(NV43 GT)


Main reason im asking is about the video. Which one would be better? I know the 6800 ultra is 400 core speed, 1100? mem

the giga vid is only a 6600gt, BUT is duel gpu, 500 core 1120 mem....

Suggestions? Im a gamer, and not sure if I will ever overclock, but prob will eventually

go for single now...and upgrade later if you have the money

remember to get the venice....the eggs has 3500+, but it could be out of our budget

eVGA makes awesome cards... i'd go with first set-up...

Option 1 for the supposedly kick ass mobo and the faster 6800 Ultra. You don't need SLI and dual video card. Waste of money.

get a 6800GT and save some cash, be sure to get the A64 venice core.

It says Venice core right on the page.

Anyway, get the 6800Ultra (or GT if you want to save) because it's a no brainer.

 

[Necrosaro420]

Ahhh ummm, well here was the deal im gonna get, any way to tell which one this is?

The only thing it says is

120428 - AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 512k 90nm (939)

?? Thanks


EDIT: Link's to wrong thing. Just use the dropdown from that link and getting DFI Nf4 Ultra-D board and the 3200+ AMD CPU That's on there

Go for the "V5ish" Gigabyte dual 6600, if Doom3 is your game :laugh:

yes.

 

[Necrosaro420]

Ahhh ok cool. Because I was going to buy from monarchcomputer's, but when I did a search for venice only one's came up said it will be out may 20th

Necrosaro420 if you look closely at the link you gave for monarch, some of the cpus in the list are revision E, those are likely to be the venice core. When you select them its says preorder only for May 6th. The 90nm cpus that aren't listed as rev E are probably winchesters.
