| 406740 | 2005-11-23 04:08:00 | So, have u got any parts for it yet?? The CPU by itself will be over $300.00 You could get something like This (www.edencomputers.co.nz) This (www.edencomputers.co.nz) This (www.edencomputers.co.nz) There are others, but they're dearer than $300, just for the mobo. |

| 406742 | 2005-11-23 04:43:00 | Well, all of the links I gave are under $300. They just dont include WLAN. And only 1 uses DDR2 ram (the dearest one). And all have 8 channel sound. Wireless LAN is pretty cheap anyway. Just get USB adapters. |

Because AMD kicks the backside of your Intel. Which makes it good advice, Where as your suggestion is just poor advice,and only the stupid and deluded would follow it. |

| 406747 | 2005-11-23 12:45:00 | The heat output of P4s leaves a lot to be desired. Is it just me or are the Althon 64 based mobos cheaper? |

| 406748 | 2005-11-23 18:50:00 | bk_T: I myself own an Intel, and long for the days when Intel again will be the better chip again... but alas for now its not happening If you havent already bought the CPU or motherboard... I would suggest AMD.. as Metla said, it is the better value chip for now, and the foreseeable future |
