Here's what I want to do now:
First I want to do an upgrade on my existing computer, which already has
all the drives it needs and a PSU:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+
Asus M2N-SLI mobo
ati x950pro graphics card
G.skill ram 4 gb
That'll cost me $629 and that's all that computer needs to be
usable again.
Then I want to build another one:
$129 Asus M2N-SLI Deluxe http://tinyurl.com/2zzhqr
$360 pny 8800 gts 640mb
$170 3.0 ghz amd athlon x2
$160 4 gb ram
$200 seagate barracuda 500gb drives, (two of them) http://tinyurl.com/2yngmq
$80.00 case $ 80
$38.00 DVD $ 38
$38.00 DVD $ 38
$60.00 Thermaltake CL-P0401 110mm Full-Range Fan CPU Cooler
$20.00 KINGWIN KF-91-1T-W SATA Mobile Rack Tray (2 of these)
$67.50 Scythe SFF21F S-FLEX 120mm Case Fan (5 of these) http://tinyurl.com/2ghmwy
$1,322.50
So for $1951.50 I'll have two computers which I will network together,
and use the second computer when I really want to do some rendering
for 3D work. So I'll have four cores, basically, which I'd basically only
really need for real rendering work anyway. My 3D program allows
unlimited render nodes. And I won't have to overclock, which I don't
want to do. I'm not into gaming.
How about that?
PS: I already have a nice 650 watt PSU and 120 gb HD just for the OS,
for the new computer.
