cygnus Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Well guys, I think I may be building myself a new system in the near future. Just want something to run Windows Vista at a reasonable speed (anything as fast, or faster than my laptop is great) and I have decided on these following parts:I know the CPU isn't anything much, but I have been more than happy with the processor in my laptop, so I think a CPU that is about 1Ghz faster, but just less the cache will still be OK.Let me know what you guys think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cygnus Posted July 2, 2007 Author Share Posted July 2, 2007 Not meant to be a powerhouse, just to run Vista. My laptop is basically the same configuration really. Plus, I don't want to spend more than $200.Heres the website to build the system:http://www.yesplay.com/storeonlinequote.as...&hCPU=INTEL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cygnus Posted July 2, 2007 Author Share Posted July 2, 2007 I think I may go with the Intel Dual Core 925. 3.0ghz, 4Mb Cache with 800Mhz FSB.http://www.intel.com/products/processor/pentium_D/index.htmIt's only 95 bucks, so it brings the total to $226, which, 26 bucks I can afford.
