Yeah, the fact that the P180 appears to not have a case speaker is weird as heck. We tried looking at the CMOS jumper, but the MSI board comes with a reset button instead of jumpers. I'm going to RMA the motherboard.
I'm gonna use it for gaming and music. After reading the posts I'm deciding to go with the MSI K9N platinum and a 3200. I went with the 3200 so I would have enough money for an x-fi.
I'm upgrading from a 5 year old 2 ghz Pentium 4.
I finally have the money for my first build. Should I take the risk of problems and go with the new technology, or stick with what I know works, at the cost of upgradeability?
Like I said, this is my first build so I want to make sure I do it right. Here's my part list:
1. ASRock 939SLI32-eSATA2 Socket 939 ULi M1697 ATX AMD Motherboard
2. eVGA 256-P2-N563-AX Geforce 7900GT 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card
3. ENERMAX Noisetaker EG495P-VE SFMA ATX 485W Power...
I'm getting ready for my first PC build and only have about $1000 to spend. I have to money for performance RAM, but if it is just going to waste when I upgrade the mobo in a year, is there really a point?
Thanks for any suggestions.
