Now all you have to do is get some good memory for that combo. 1gb of OCZ 3200 with 2-2-2-5 timings is cheap and makes a huge difference. Corsair XMS is nice too, but not as good as the OCZ - Couple that with a Raptor or 2 and your system will be smokin ;) |

I've built many systems, in each I've either selected a MSI or asus. I've never been unhappy with either, in even the smallest sense. |

One thing I love about my ASUS board (A7n8x) is the 'MyLogo2' stuff.. Create your own bios boot logo so you don't get the standard ide discovery/ram initialization/etc.. Gets rid of that pesky 'PC' feel :) Straight into a custom WinXP boot screen and then MAMEWAH as a shell. Can't beat it :) |
