New Build this month, to use a second rig since i convinced my wife to play City of Villains with me 
It's a Budget Build, and i used a bunch of components i had laying around, so the total COST this month was $175.
AMD Sempron 64 2800+ - 1.6Ghz (Overclocked 1.8Ghz - 3100+, will finish overclock to 2.0Ghz) ADDED: replaced Duron 700
MSI K8N Neo-V nForce3 250 socket 754 motherboard ADDED: replaced old Compaq socket A uWave
MSI Radeon 9600Pro - 128mb video card
1x512mb GeIL PC3200 ram w/ cobalt aluminum heatspreaders ADDED: replaced 2x256mb Crucial PC133
20GB Western Digital hard drive

So far:
Case: ASpire X Q-Pack Black with Blue bezel small form factor case
Motherboard: Biostar T-Force 6100 socket 939
Processor: AMD 3500+ Winchester core
Ram: (Not Bought Yet) Will be 2 gig of PC3200, probably Corsair TWINX2048-3200C2 2GB kit
Videocard: (Not Bought Yet) Looking for an ATI X800GTO or X800GTO2, will utilize onboard video until that is found.
Harddrives: (2) Western Digital 8mb cache 7200rpm 120GB (will be configured to RAID 0)
PowerSupply: Replacing existing ASpire 420 watt powersupply with powersupply from my current system. Thermaltake 480 watt.
Heatsink: (Not Bought Yet) Zalman CNPS7700-CU 120MM (Yea, the baddest one Zalman has... going for silent here too!!
Soundcard: Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS
Monitor: Samsung 191T 19" LCD
Of course I will be going overboard on the cleanliness of the install on this system. Am shooting for no visible wiring, and what wiring that is visible will be kept to a minimum (I'm talking drilling holes in case supports to run wires, splicing powersupply wires to get rid of extra length, etc.) Will try to post pics once I start making good headway.
Existing system
Case: Lian-Li (PC-65?) Custom fleckstone paint on front bezel
Motherboard: Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe with Trats BIOS
Processor: AMD 2500+ Mobile. (Able to reach 2.61ghz)
Ram: Same as above, just 1gb instead of 2gb
Videocard: Powercolor 9800 Pro with Arctic Cooling aftermarket heatsink and fan (For Sale)
Harddrives: Same as above
Heatsink: Thermalright SLK-900 w/92mm Tornado
Soundcard: Same as above
Monitor: Same as above |
