ASUS a8n-e doesnot support DDR2

for 19inch monitors SAmSUNG
and for 17inch LG

for DVD riters always LiteOn

UPS 800va - APC

FYI, no mobo that supports AMD CPU comes with support for DDR2. Its only supported by Intel chipsets and that too the later ones. 8)

Take Leadtek ehich is better than XFX.If Leadtek is not available go for XFX.

Take Liteon DVD writer.

LCD's are not for gaming and the clarity will also be less.Samusung latest models have good features.17" is enough for home users.

3800+ -------------------- 19,500

512*2 corseir------------ 5000
xfx geforce 6800gs 256mb --------- 17000

17k for 6800GS ????? Are you sure you wanna spend so much on that card ?
Cos its definitely not worth it.
Stay away from LiteOn DVD Writer.
Buy BenQ or LG Drive,far better than Litey Shit.

S

i think 6600g 256mb pcie would be enough, what do you think abt Asus Dvd Writers, Suggest me the best dvd writer .

H

yes on thing abt AMD do u people actually know on what type of core is the processor built ,as the performance and heat desipation depends on this . plz check AMD site bfore buying a

N

do u have agp platform

is 6800 gs is for agp.

S

well i have the same question abt heating of Amd processor, but later on i get to know that new Amd processor (venice core, revised ) are much cooler then Intel.

the dual cores are not venice core.....

Firstly, friends the temperature does not depend that much on core as much on the Die Size,

AMD's right now are 90nm and so are the intels, but there is more to it, and Almost all AMD procy's today are much cooler than the intel counterparts...

The 3800+ X2's are Manchester core, and runs very cool,

The dual cores never came in venice, winchester, newcastle cores etc.... these are made in different cores.

So please dont get confused in cores buddy, there is no reason to think that all NEW AMD's are venice core, it's only the new 3200+, 3500+ etc...

even from 3800+ we get San Diego core which is better than Venice, more L2 cache.....

thanks, for the info kniwor!
