Well, a friend just gave me an Intel 3.2 prescott (socket 478) because he couldn't exchange it at the store (he decided to go AMD and sold me the 3.2 for $1 Cool Then again, if Dell uses it, I HAS to be good )
I was thinking on creating a $700-800 gaming PC. Well, I know that an Intel won't provide performance like an AMD, but for the price I paid, I would like to use it
All I need is the internal parts and a case. No OS, no speakers, etc..
I would like to play games like CoDII, BF2, etc. at a good pace. I know I won't be able to play at the highest frame rates, but oh well. I would like a nice, fast video card, too, if possible. Hopefully I won't have to upgrade a year or so and I also need a rig that can play future games moderately well (if that's possible with the rig that I would like).
I would also like a case which is not too dull, perhaps something flashier than your average beige or black box. Nothing too "cheapy" looking with a plastic head sticking out. I was thinking something "smooth" and elegant like Cooler Master's, Silverstone's, etc. line of cases.
I hope I'm not too demanding with my requests! Thanks for the help!
Thanks for all the help, guys
