I buy/build a computer once every 3-5 years. So when I buy, I want
something that will last awhile. .
What do you think of this configuration.
GA-8IK1100 motherboard
$127
Not going to use Gbit Network or a SCSI harddrive. Any reason to spend any
more on the motherboard?
Intel Pentium 4/3.0C GHz 800FSB, 512KB Cache $280
Seems to be the best value for the buck.
Thermaltake P4 Spark 7+ (Xaser Edition) $23
Since these are so cheap, I figured on buying the best. Is this one the
best?
Corsair Valur Select Dual Channel Kit 1G (512MBx2) $157
DDR PC-3200
ABIT GeForce TI4200-8X Video Card, 128MB DDR $137
Antec Life Style Series Model:Sonata with 380W PSU $90
2 X Seagate 80GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive $158
I'm buying 2 of these so that I can run them with Raid 0
I'm kind of nervous about it though. If I loose either hard drive or the
controller than I'll loose everything not backed up. Is the speed gain
worth the added risk?
Creative Labs Audigy 2 PCI ZS Platinum
$162
Logitech 7640 5.1 Speakers
$66
SONY MPF920 1.44MB 3.5 Floppy $9
SONY BLACK 16X DVD-ROM Model DDU1612/B2 $39
Sony Black DVD+/-RW Recorder Drive $134
===========
$1382
Thanks!
