Answer #2
Are those the only options available?
Answer #3
I agree with the i3, i think intel outperforms the others. I used to be into AMD’s but have recently switched. Wouldn’t the MSI P55 be better with 3PCI’s? Other than that your config is what I’d have chosen.
You might want a higher end processor though. I have the i5 750 (quad core one, not dual with hyper threading like the other i5’s) and it is perfect for me, just the right amount of speed. I would have liked an i7 though.
Answer #4
@ D r e a M Unfortunately, yes. I’ll spar money because I have a discount just on these. Where do you see the vulnerability? Graphic card?
Answer #5
@
Im using AMD X2 too, but im just using my pc for the internet, i play games on ps3 in front of my TV. But she wants an pc too and i must buy it…
Is i3 better then Core2Duo E7500? and Why 3PCI’s? Dont get that.
i cant buy i5 its over 170 Euros, i will get this i3 for 90 Euro. There is big difference, for me.
Answer #6
What you’ve selected so far is good though you should opt for the 5770 instead. Neither of the 1156 motherboards above are anything special just get the cheapest one that works. Also the 3rd hard drive is for notebooks so you can’t get that
Answer #7
@ D r e a M
Thanks. Its been removed. Well the MBs cost about 110 Euros, i was thinking they are a bit better. Well will have consider myself.
