Zeus_Hunt Posted May 14, 2005 Share Posted May 14, 2005 Hey guys I dont think this post should have been here but need desperate advice on assemblong a PC....Would only go for AMD processors....I m confused whether AMD 64 or SempronAs I have a tight budget AMD 64 and the assosiated motherboard I think might be out of my budget.....So Sempron..... Which one that is price to performance ratio..... And a fitting motherboard....And a decent graphics card......Though I would be spending in Rs I will give a rough $ estimate....All this for $225 ie Processor+Motherboard+(Preferably inbuilt Graphics Card+Sound Card) :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gir489 Posted May 14, 2005 Share Posted May 14, 2005 You will need at least a gig of ram.I went for being a cheap-ass and getting 512. Don't make my mistake.Use your current HD, if you can.Just scrap as much stuff as you can from your old comp, into your new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeus_Hunt Posted May 14, 2005 Author Share Posted May 14, 2005 I cannot dump anything from the other system as i m planning to keep the other 1 for my dad.....I just want Speed of Sempron, the brand of mother board to go with....Motherboard which has a desent graphics card and a 5.1 audio would be great....AMD Sempron Processor: 3100+ (SOCKET 754)AMD Sempron Processors: 2200+, 2300+, 2400+, 2500+, 2600+, and 2800+(SOCKET A) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Lite Posted May 14, 2005 Administrator Share Posted May 14, 2005 512mb RAM should be fine for atleast the current time.... under any case RAM is easy to upgrade. Gett additional RAM when/ IF you need it.I personally suggest spending the extra few $'s on the AMD 64 socket 939 versions.... these feature numerous advantages over the semprons and there socket 754 "brothers". If not the Sempron's should be fine for the next few years atleast.If your planning on gaming dont bother getting inbuilt graphics.... they are terrible.

Zeus_Hunt Posted May 16, 2005 Author Share Posted May 16, 2005 I think next few years, is too long a time to be sticking with the same processor.... :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsane Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 dude, that processor i posted aint yer basic sempron. look at the FSB compared to the others listed there ;)link..., there's a few other 800MHz semprons there. but, i posted the cheapest since yer on a budget. i also posted a mobo fully capable of using the 800MHz FSB :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeus_Hunt Posted May 17, 2005 Author Share Posted May 17, 2005 I was just going thru the website and the site is :wacko: :rolleyes: really confusing....Getting a hang of the site.....the AMD 64 itself has given me 49 results within the price range of $100 to $250......They have 3 versions of AMD 64 itself.... Thanks a lot for the site nsane :P Really a good site going thru it right now.....Do u know any site which gives performance comparisions between motherboards.... I might increase my budget as I will be purchasing the system on installments... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nsane Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 first, the second one is for a socket 754 mobo (older/slower)...any ways, the last one would be the best. since it come with SSE3 support (that being, pretty much, the only difference) :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
