Esl2009 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2004 ? Its better to find a pc with 3ghz and 256mb(at least) ram. Its worthless to spend a few money on something not good! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alperuzi 0 Report post Posted October 10, 2004 don't agreefirst of all 256MB ram is noway near enough if you want a fast system, you need at least 4 times more considering today's standards.but thats beside my point. Something like a 600Mhz , 512mb system is perfectly fine for general computing such as word processing and internet browsing, email and most current and older games. A 200-300 dollar PC will do just fine.Paying a thousand bucks for the latest p4 5ghz system with ati x800 graphics will only let you run Doom3 and maybe make Firefox (note, not IE ) start 1 second faster.

sohahm 0 Report post Posted October 10, 2004 I would like to let you know that Please do not go for a Celeron Processor.You should buy 500 MHZ Original but not buy 800 or 900 Celeron.It is very low level processor.I have used but not satisfied with its performance.Sohail Ahmedsohail4@msn.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Casanova 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2004 You could also look at your local computer magazines and look for a used pc in the classifieds section. I gotten some pretty good deals that way. Newegg.com is also a good choise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pbrugge 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2004 If the main purpose is to browse the internet you dont need a 1Ghz or higher in that case an 486 will do fine theoreticly speaking, I dont know what kind of OS it is that you use but I think it does not really matter what cpu you choose aslong as it is not the minimum supported cpu on the OS you are using. NOTE: this is if your system will be used for office applications and internet only so not for games or multimedia like divx ect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

melkonianarg 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2004 Is it true that Sempron are just a relaunched XP chip, ir is there a significant difference in performance...? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
