Folks,
I am going to purchase a new CPU (happy with monitor - Iiyama Pro450). I am looking to get a CPU that I will not feel the need to update or replace for about 3 years. Money is not so much an object as not having to not bother with updating for awhile. Main purpose of the machine is gaming. I play Combat Mission, OPART and Uncommon Valor.
With that said, the following are the specs on a machine I am thinking of getting. Your comments (positive or negative) would be greatly appreciated as my knowledge is fairly limited.
System:
Pentium 4 2800 Base System/533MHz FSB
Motherboard:
Asus P4T533-C P4 RDRAM Motherboard w/USB 2.0, 6-ch audio, 10/100 LAN
Memory:
512Mb PC 1066 RDRAM
Hard Drive:
120Gig EIDE Western Digital Caviar (Special Edition) Model 1200 JB
Drive Controller:
Promise Fast Track - 100 TX2IDE RAID Controller
Video Card:
ATI Radeon 9700 Pro AGP w/128Mb DDR memory
CD DVD #1:
Lite-On 16X IDE DVD Drive Model LTD-163 OEM
CD DVD #2:
TEAC CDW540E 40x12x48 EIDE CDRW Drive w/8m Cache
Operating System:
Windows 2000
Thanks in advance for any thoughts or comments.
Pete
