What could I build for £500 ish using AMD 64bit and PCI Express technology, full works excluding monitor, keyboard, mouse and speakers.
I built a
AMD64 3000+ (£84)
Ax-8 mobo (£60)
1 Gb ram (£45)
PCI-E 6600GT (£70),
80GB SATA HDD (£34)
And a case, fans, copy of win xp etc.(£100)
Runs all the latest games (Battlefield 2 mainly at the moment) really smooth. First machine I ever built and I'm dead chuffed with it. I ordered all the bits off a UK internet shop.
I included a 17" TFT screen from LG (£134).
Well worth it.
