Hi guys,
Originally, I just wanted to upgrade my Athlon 64 system, add a 3700+ Sandy, overclock it to 4000+ speeds, and get 2 GB of Dual Channel RAM.
But now, I want to get a Core 2 Duo system, because dual core CPU's are the best way to go (and Intel is the best right now)
I want to get these parts:
Core 2 Duo E6300 (possibly OC it to 2 GHZ or more
Need RAM suggestions (1GB)
Possibly this mobo, I'm open for budget suggestions :
Like I said, IDK if that board is good. It has the I945P chipset, dual channel capability, and just one PCI-E X16 slot (Don't want SLI or Crossfire).
What do you think about this build?
I already have a GPU (X850XT PE), HDD, PSU (FSP 400W 36A), etc.
Probably, when more, cheaper DX10 cards arrive, I'll toss away the X850
If you can suggest something better (but not too expensive please ), please feel free to do it.
Thanks :wave:
