Help me decide on Computer Specs

hmm.. ang processor ramn wa gitipid ani. hehehe

suggest kog 2GB mem, nya dual channel configuration so duha ka 1 gb mem, para di mag bottleneck sa imo mem.

nya ang 945P chipset supports upto 1066, pero gistate sa ECS site nga makaupport na nga board og 1333 for a specific configuration. my guess is it will run ur proc at 1066 by default nya iset pa nimo sa bios and set some other configs para mudagan og 1333. better choose another board with a more updated chipset.

sa vid card pilig kanang at least, nvidia 8 series or ati hd2000/hd3000 series

also buy a decent psu.

agree ko with what most people here said..get a cheaper but good processor like the e7200 and use the money you saved for a better motherboard & videocard. also, preho rag prices ang ddr2667 & ddr2800 so get the ddr2800 instead. last but not the least if you are getting a video card that requires a pci-e connector get a decent branded one with at least 450w

yea...with the proposed vcard upgrade, you should get a decent PSU also. And if you're on that tight budget, maybe you should downgrade your proc...afterall, you don't actually need 4 cores to do all tasks, for now...btw, para unsa mn ni xa (purpose)?

recommend 4gb dual channel ram
ati hd3870 or higher vcard

the board is kinda low

that would seriously go over his budget.

q6600 is a great proc, but you need to get higher ram since you want to have fun with videos and a better card if you want good performance on more recent games. If possible at all get DDR2-800 sticks and a motherboard that supports them, instead of 667's.

for the PSU i would recommend SilverStone ST50F or ST56F..
