I have still a few days until I decide how my system would look before I buy it. I still have a few questions regarding some of the items. My first question is:
- Do I really need 1024MB of memory?
I know it depends on what I am going to do with the system, basically gaming, nothing like extreme multi tasking. Thats why I think its almost too much to go for 1GB of RAM. What do you think about that?
Also, since my budget is max near $1700, I was thinking of a cheap motherboard when deciding what I should get. What I found was the Abit IS7-E i865PE. Its half of the price of the other motherbard I was interested, which is the Asus P4P800 DELUXE i865PE. Should I only buy a 512MB stick and spend the money left in this motherboard, or should I stick with the Abit?
Also, going for the Radeon 9600Pro since its half of the price of the Radeon 9800Pro here, and I dont need a very powerful video card anyways.
