Deckhand Posted July 3, 2002 Share Posted July 3, 2002 well, maybe a dual AMD CPU amd xp 2200+ 2 cheetah SCSI HDD's 16,000 RPM 1.5gb of 333 DDR memory ATI ALL-IN-WONDER RADEON 8500 128MB DDR Dual 21''LCD Display nitrogen cooled, :) ds3 broadband connection sound blaster audigy plat. Sony DVDRW (nice aluminum case) you'll be running a kickass system... im not sure about the radeon though, never tried one. Edit: LOL, dual XP's..my bad.. you get the point though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan Posted July 3, 2002 Author Share Posted July 3, 2002 i like ATI m8 but i think a geforce 4 ti 4600 is on the cards moreso... cause nVidia write the best drivers... Nitrogen cooling? Does that exist? cool idea... sound a bit like a cooker tho wouldnt it! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make your mind up. Personally it would have to be the simple combo of the P4 2.53ghz or the AMD 2200+ combined with 1gb+ RDram/DDRram and a GF4 Ti4600. You're not really gonna beat those at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jubcoo Posted July 3, 2002 Share Posted July 3, 2002 ok. How about a dual 2200 athlon Xp with a a gig of 333 ddr ram with two 120 GB hard drives. The new radeon (9700?) will ship this month. Pick up one of those and you should be all set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan Posted July 3, 2002 Author Share Posted July 3, 2002 feck me... it must be important if dazzla is posting! lol! "In your first post you said best performance, money is no object. Make your mind up" I also said AMD rig... take ur time and read the post thoroughly next time.... jubcoo: i appreciate ur advice but does a dual cpu setup differ much form a single one wen only playing games like ut 2003 or doom 3?

To be honest, I go with intel if I had the money to spend, and I'm an "AMD guy." But, I guess the 2200+ would do fine with a ti4600 :) Damn I wish I had the money to spend on somthing like that ... :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unimatrixzer0 Posted July 3, 2002 Share Posted July 3, 2002 If money were no object I'd buy one of those super computers off IBM,.. the ones with like a gazillion processors that predict the weather and shizzle. lmao :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
