| Re: rolling56's C2D build pics How about some guidance on a mother board (below $150).....and video card (below $100). Don't have a lot of $$.
I'm assembling my first non-gaming desktop that needs firewire and my next two purchases are a mother board and video card.
I'll be doing some limited video editing.....and my video capturing device uses firewire to connect to the computer.
I have an AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800 socket AM2 processor, Kingsport Value Ram (2GB kit) DDR2 PC2 667Mhz memory, Antec Sonata II case with built-in power supply, a couple of hard drives, and a dvd drive.
Any guidance would be most appreciated. Keep in mind, I'm new at this.
What's your opinion of Mushkin memory?
What about this video card? eVGA GeForce 7600GS PCI Express 256MB Video Card for $70 afer rebates. Keep in mind, I'm no gamer.
