Perfect PC

[The Godfather]

Im thinking, since im not getting the mac mini...

An 80gig hard drive
AMD 64 3500
Dual fan powersupply
cd/rw and dvd/rw
GeForce 6800 Rosewill (since i saw a website they had it for 200$)

This is about.... 900 - 1000$????

Is that good for 3d animation, and graphics modeling?

Is it worth the money?

 

[blackinches]

blackinches thinks that's ok. what mobo, case, and ram would you get. you should get the nec nd3520 for your dvdrw, it's cheap and good.

for animation you should get as much ram as possible.

 

[guidot]

3d animation? and modeling? You need a bit more than that... Try a 200Gb HDD, AMD 4000, 2+GB of RAM, and a real graphics card, like something from Matrox.

cutting it back to 3200+ wont be too much of a difference, besides if you buy oem, you can oc it easily to 2.6 or 2.7ghz (FX levels of performance) just be sure to buy a fan when you buy oem(preferably the stock amd64 fan). rosewill seems like a good company but besides, newegg, no one carreis it. sort of suspect huh? go name brand. theres a 6800bfg oc for 250 and that comes stock overclocked and a lifetime warranty on some site(i'll try to track it down). also, get 1 drive unless you like copying cds on the fly.

if you're really into 3d animation and graphics modeling, id suggest you go quaddro. you'll be amazed how the same core can behave so differently. ex, the 6800ultra does 70fps on doom 3, the quaddro does 15-20 but in 3d modeling etc, it works that much faster than the 6800 ultra also.

 

[The Godfather]

Ok.. Its not that serious. Right now i have a 40gig hard.. 1.1amd xp and its keeping up pretty good. As far as ram.. im thinking something good but where 1.2 gigs of ram will be no more than 500$

 

[The Godfather]

I'm not going over 2 grand.

If anyone can.. can you sum up a perfect pc in 2 grand with more than 1gig ram
thanks
i appreciate the help guys

 

[The Godfather]

And a 64bit processor

 

[imported_SoulCatcher]

OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer What it means in the case of a CPU is its the chip only, no heatsink included. I am not aware of the possibility of OEM allowing you to overclock more, but im a newb to overclocking.

blackinches would like to know if you are stalking blackinches.? sorry to dissapoint but blackinches' third person talk is not dissappearing. this is the only way blackinches knows how to speak.

 

[The Godfather]

blackinches (no offence) is a psychotic maniac who talks in 3rd person to relax his pain inside.

 

[The Godfather]

HELP If anyone can.. can you sum up a perfect pc in 2 grand with more than 1gig ram PLEASE PLEASE

 

[AVP]

Ok I could but I need some more information as to the video card you wanted. Standard AGP? you said you wanted to do some graphics modelling and such, and (excuse my ignorance) as far as I know, dont they make special video cards for that sort of thing? Also you are planning to put this thing together your self right? do you need a monitor? OS?

 

[The Godfather]

Yes. I need a monitor. I allredy have Windows XP bought. For monitor im thinking flat screen, but not those thin ones. A cheeper one but a good one.

 

[The Godfather]

So the final thing.

AMD 64 3500
Ram (Not sure but 1gig for less than 500$)
Monitor (not sure but flat screen, cheap)
Hard drive: 80 gig not too expensive (no more than 120$)
Case: ASPIRE X-Navigator Silver/Black Aluminum ATX Mid-Tower Case with side window and 500W Power Supply, Model"ATXA8NW-AL/500" -RETAIL

Dvd/rw, cd/rw

Power Supply: Dual Fan with blue lighting

PLS Any suggestions for the unbrand spaces
and prices include plese.

OEM won't OC any better ... its the exact same chip. And if your just going to get the stock cooler for your OEM chip, why not get the retail chip, which comes with the stock cooler included???

 

[The Godfather]

You guys aren't helping me .. PLEASE I REALLY NEED THIS ADVICE The empty spaces at least :

 

[CheesePoofs]

You can get a gig of ram for much less than $500 ... i'd recomend getting a gig of value ram for $140, because the expensive stuff will be no faster. Also, for $120, you can get much more than an 80gig HD, you could probably find a 160gig one for that much.

 

[The Godfather]

Thanks.. Can you give me product names or links?

 

[CheesePoofs]

this is just what i found on newegg in 2 minutes ... i didn't look anywhere else.

2x512mb corsair ram - $140 with shipping
160gb seagate sata HD - $115 with shipping

 

[The Godfather]

AAA! This is the easiest post.. it doesnt require any thinking whatso ever... and so few people are looking at it.. I need this help badly.. PLEASE give me some product names or links

 

[AVP]

[The Godfather]

I know you did. Thank you alot. You saved my life. I need monitor. Flat screen for less than 400$
