Parent

godez 7 Sep 2007, 13:31
that means its way slower than the 8600GTS....so its not rly an alternative.
Parent
▼
Panda 7 Sep 2007, 13:34
But still waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay cheaper (for some reason)
Maybe 2x 8400? :D

Are those just parts or do you get them in a computer?
▼
aQUTE 7 Sep 2007, 11:58
no just parts...
but i already have monitor,keyboard, mouse and dvd-player
▼
ph6xy 7 Sep 2007, 11:59
Can you pay them extra to build it for you?
Parent
▼
aQUTE 7 Sep 2007, 12:07
if you pay 50eu they build it for you...
but no need for that
Parent

krisse 7 Sep 2007, 12:04

▼
aQUTE 7 Sep 2007, 12:07
in a good way? :)
Parent
▼
krisse 7 Sep 2007, 12:11
yea .. atleast if we compare prizes between nl(?) and fin =)
but u could lower that prize like changing that 500gb HD to 320gb ..if u dont need that much space
Parent

aQUTE 7 Sep 2007, 12:16

srph 7 Sep 2007, 12:12
wait for nvidia 9xxx series.
prices of vga cards will drop then..
tho i believe you can buy the rest of the parts now.
▼
Re/d 7 Sep 2007, 12:12
Pretty nice, tho I think i'd take a x1950pro instead of the 8600gts.

rapture 7 Sep 2007, 12:13

fuZed 7 Sep 2007, 12:24
Corsair 2GB DDR2 (2x1GB) PC6400 800Mhz CL5 5-5-5-12

would buy the 4-4-4-12 version !!!

much better imo
▼
aQUTE 7 Sep 2007, 12:28
oke thats true...but its like almost the price of the total computer...
im no miljonair
else i would have gone for this processor:
Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6800 (S775, 4x2.93GHz, 8MB, 1066MHz FSB, Boxed)

but mr. Wallet says " no"

Parent

buy intel and 8800gts
▼
aQUTE 7 Sep 2007, 16:48
i understand that intel is better (i dont know why, but everyone keeps saying that) but you have to understand that im just a poor student and intel is way more expensive...
is it realy THAT much better to spend so much more money on?

same goes for the 8800 gts...its an extra 100 euro to the bill. is it realy worth it?
Parent

Fatalstrike 7 Sep 2007, 17:30
i got my 8800 gts for 250 euro and just look about this game performance ratings of the cards

www.computerbase.de/artikel/hardware/grafikkarten/2007/test_nvidia_geforce_8600_gts_sli_8600_gt/27/#abschnitt_performancerating

its a real improvement and well you can get the intel core 2 duo 6750 allready for 170 euro and a good mainboard like the gigabyte ds3 for like 85 euros your decision .. :>

▼
chaoZ 7 Sep 2007, 13:56
rather buy core2duo instead of amd
▼
aQUTE 7 Sep 2007, 20:37
this one is also duocore incase you havnt noticed
Parent
▼
chaoZ 7 Sep 2007, 20:47
no the intel system is called 'Core2Duo' and its faster than the amd.I think the core2doa 6600 is the best for the smallest price
