Gday, my names Brendan & i’m from Australia. I was reading an answer to the question celeron v’s pentium.. and i found it interesting, as i am planning to build a computer in the near future, i would like to find out as much as possible. So i was hoping you could help by suggesting a few things or explaining what hardware would best suit what i am looking to get out of this computer.
I’d like a fast computer preferably the biggest pentium available to australia.. but money doesnt allow, so what would be the difference between all processors.. are pentium above all the rest.. and if so does AMD come close behind?? i’m looking at an AMD Athlon 1.8 Ghz with 256 Sd Ram and a 32 Meg Graphics Card.. i want to be able to play avi. mpeg. etc movies at full screen at the best possible quality i can get for the quality of the file.. would a 64meg graphics card make the difference for that as opposed to a 32meg?? sorry this is so long.. one last Q, could u suggest the hardware for me to build acomputer with this in mind..
I need the motherboard and all its accesories, everything else i have..
I’d like a 40 Gig HDD, what’s a good brand?
Is there better or worse brands of Ram.. what brand would u suggest?
Motherboard.. i’d like a motherboard that i can upgrade to alot more ram in the future when i can save some penies.
I’ll leave u with that.. i think i’ve taken up too much of ur time already..
Much appreciate ur help. cheers
