Finally after a long year of putting of my wanting and dying for a new computer, to fund my teenager's activities, I'm getting my new computer. I just gave the guy who is building it the cash. Here is what he is putting in it:
ADM Athlon 64 3700+ 939 Pin Processor
Asrock 939 Dual Mother Board
(Both Hyper threading)
Crucial 2x512 Ram
Satall 160 Hard Drive (in addition to a 120 Gig 2nd Hard Drive I have all ready)
Sony DVD RW
Sonny Floppy
300 W Power Source
Wireless Router Connector
17 inch flat screen monitor (with the capability to hook up a 2nd one when I can afford to get it)
Wireless Logitec Tracking Ball Mouse
MS Natural Keyboard
I get it this weekend providing all the parts come in!! I so can't wait!! 8)
Finally! My New Computer!

Re: Finally! My New Computer!
Yeah, I realized that he didnt tell me the type of video card and sound card that he is putting into it when he was telling me all the parts he ordered for me today. He told me before when we were making the deal, but I suck at remebering things like that so I'll tell you later when I get the comptuer this weekend.Speed Damage wrote:Damn, I only have you beat with one thing - I have a 19" samsung flatscreen

Re: Finally! My New Computer!
I hope he put's in a decent video card.Looking at the Power Supply it should be a Mid-Range Power video card.

Looks good
I'm actually hoping to upgrade to that motherboard and a similar CPU over Easter, what a coincidence!

Re: Finally! My New Computer!
1. That power supply doesn't impress me at all
2. Also, what video card do you get?
3. You should get 2 gb RAM.
EDIT: But if you don't play with your computer, 2 & 3 doesn't really matter.

Re: Finally! My New Computer!
Im not into gaming. So I hope that the 1 gig of ram is ok for photoshop and the other things I use my computer for. I'll talk to the guy about the power source. Thanks.Banaani wrote:1. That power supply doesn't impress me at all
