My present system:
Epox 8rda+
Athlon XP 2200
1 GB 3200 Samsung Ram
80 GB Maxtor HD
CD & DVD writer
Radeon 9700 Pro
Enermax 400W PS
Problem:
Bad Caps on mainboard so I need to replace!
Solution: Upgrade only CPU and mainboard
Athlon 64 3000 Venice $180
Abit AV8 $105 or,
Asus A8V deluxe $125 or,
Giga-byte K8NS - Ultra 939 $ 105 or
MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum $ 125
I am in Korea and my choice of maniboards is limited to the above.
See any problems here? Will the MSI (Nforce 3 Ultra) be a better
performer than the Abit (K8T800Pro)? The bottom line is a small
upgrade at the best bang for the buck. I also want to run Windows XP
64.
Thanks
