erm, maybe.....it would just be a standard one tho... you should check them out, some of the prices are ok... www.computerorbit.co.uk
cheers bit tempting when i know i could go over there now, and probably buy the stuff striaght away from the shelves
yeah, thats what im like too i always want it now, so i dont mind if i have to pay a few quid over the Internet price, cos its hardly worth bothering over 2 quid...
it looks like they are wanting £100 just for the xp2800 chip this only started because i cant get that fucken new graphics card to work in my system (and me dads is more powerfull then mine, and we have this stupid smug contest running)
from there site ASROCK K7S8X ASRock U-COP FSB 333MHz Price: £28.20 Including VAT at 17.5% AMD XP 2800 (2.083GHZ) BOXED BOXED INCLUDING CPU FAN & 3 YEARS MANUFACTURER WARRANTY. BARTON CORE Price: £104.58 Including VAT at 17.5% might as well but the ebay deal from them like you said i could get it tomorow lol must resist, finally payed my over draft off arrghhh:angel2:
when buying motherboards stick to brands like ASUS, ABIT and EPOX... dont waste time with things like ASrock, jetway and other budget brands. a good motherboard and bios shows great performance increases over lesser boards. when buying a mobo and cpu dont scrimp too much on mobo and additional RAM.. good ram makes a difference too... crucial.com have always been good for ram
If your buying an AMD cpu then PERSONALLY i wouldnt buy any motherboard that DOESNT have an Nvidia Nforce chipset - Ive had sooooo many problems with VIA Based chipset motherboards than ive had hot dinners to put me off them for life. IMHO
Before anyone gets anythin from Orbit check out this - www.zyaan.com Cheaper prices all round and they do next day delivery.. Also I find www.aria.co.uk , www.overclockers.co.uk and www.komplett.co.uk good sites.. I was gonna buy a amd 64 fx 51.. decided it was a slightly stupid price though.. gonna get a 3200+ instead..
