New config :D

Postby spit on Mon Aug 07, 2006 8:04 pm

I know i've posted before but i've got a new config. I've recently upgraded. Current specs:

Asus A8N5X Mainboard (Nforce 4 ultra chipset)
AMD Athlon 64 3500 Venice core 90 nm technology(latest generation)
ATI Radeon X700 VGA card with 512 MB DDR2 memory
160 Seagate HDD
512 MB RAM ( i'll be soon getting another 512)
:D it's working great. for those of you who want to buy Intel Dual Core processors I suggest to try AMD 64. IT ROCKS

Meh, 64 is okay, only problem is that it's harder to work with. Especially with an NForce chipset, especially in linux though I'd imagine that's changing. Recently, when I tried to install nix on one of those nasty asus mobos, I got no network support, (great if you are using apt to do most of your install). Personally, Intel HT is still better than 64 at least in my opinion. it's alot easier to find 32 bit drivers and most games and stuff don't run 64 bit yet.
Failure is not an option, it comes bundled with your microsoft products.

Im currently running:
DFI Lanparty 925x-T2 with a P4 3.4ghz, And a radeon 850xt, 1024ddr2, and around 800gb worth of disks ^_^

Gonna upgrade to 64bit when there is decent support for it in windows.
