Ok. My budget for a new system is about $1,100
I'm trying to make the best system possible on www.cyberpowersystem.com (I don't know how to put together my own computer ;()
I was wondering about some things -
1. Which is faster? AMD 64 or P4's?
2. DDR2 ram? wtf?
3. Dual Core Pentiums? What's the deal? Are they a lot faster?
4. I hear you can unlock pipelines with a normal 6800 to get the 16 pipelines that a 6800gt has. If so I was thinking of getting a Leadtek 6800 and OC'ing it and unlocking the pipelines....does that even work?
Any recommendations? Better sites to put a computer together? Any tips? I don't trust myself with putting the computer together via tutorials...so I think I'll leave that to the pros.
