xboxrulz 0 Report post Posted January 25, 2005 pretty good specifications! I have a few questions? what's a mobo? If you are getting so much good stuff why not get a 120 GB HDD instead. I also recommend using Maxtor hard drives. You should get ATI because of graphics unless you hate configurating your own graphic card then go for NVIDIA. Please also note that you need Windows XP 64-bit in order to run it on this machine. If not, get Linux. Fedora core has a 64-bit version!I hope this helps :Pxboxrulz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alperuzi 0 Report post Posted January 25, 2005 thats some good specs, at last someone who knows what they are talking about :PNvidia 6600GT is an awesome card, I'll buy that over the 9600 for sure. The 9600s are old, really old now, unless you go for a x700 or something (which you can't really find around) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xboxrulz 0 Report post Posted January 25, 2005 Linux is good for servers, office workstations (as in you are not playing games on it, both for home or office work), multimedia station, XBOX consoles, network stations and whatever computer use you can think of except gaming since there's not much support yet.xboxrulz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
