gamehead200 Posted February 22, 2003 Share Posted February 22, 2003 Guys, is all the stuff in the Excel document compatible? If not, can someone tell me?

gamehead200 Posted February 22, 2003 Author Share Posted February 22, 2003 That's how Canada is...Is the DDR RAM OK?...I think the motherboard comes with a on-board sound, firewire, USB 2.0, and on-board LAN as well, am I right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crispy Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 One you should consider is getting 512MB of RAM insted of 256. It might cost more but belive me, Win XP + photoshop + UT2003 etc. = RAM usage! ... I have been running on 256 for 2 months and I don't find it to be enough - ordered 256MB more just yesterday.The rest looks ok ... but overpriced ...

speedz Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 ...Ur current setup is a p4 1.7 GHZ correct?Ur not gonna get much of a performance increase.Especially since ur using less ram.Stick with wat u've got and just upgrade the proc.Or replace the heatsing + Fan and OC the proc.

gamehead200 Posted February 24, 2003 Author Share Posted February 24, 2003 ...except I have less RAM which I will add after...Didn't I say I would add more RAM? speedz, my Dell sucks right now. I have 256 MB RAM, 40 GB, and a 1.7 GHz processor...My Dell has no more 5.25" slots, so I can't add a burner. So, what do you suggest I do, buy a new computer !? I think I'm gonna go for it, but first look at some more prices...Just a reminder, I LIVE IN CANADA! //edit: Assembly is included in the price !
