What's your budget?

What are you using the computer for?

What size is your monitor?

Are you overclocking?

Do you have to buy OEM?

What sites can you buy from? If you're not buying from a site, is there anyway for you to list the components you can buy?

When were you planning on buying?

[edit]

i dunno why i have everything in ? when he wanted €

wasn't paying attention =P

Doesnt matter if the CPU is made for gaming or not, any CPU can game. The E2200 is based on Conroe core of the Core 2 Duo, i used to game on an E2160 fine.

As for ram it doesnt matter if its 800Mhz its not like he is going to be overclocking and memory speed makes negligable difference on gaming performance.

When is a processor ever "made for gaming"? Processors are general computing tools..they're never specifically designed for a specific task. The only valid point in that post is that the processor might be slightly holding back the higher end GPUs, which doesn't appear to be a factor in this case at all.

well truloy speaking gaming wise lets leave that aspect a side ill forget gaming, not interested coz got an xbox360 so shud have mentioned before but otherwise no one seems to have answered my maion question yet will mac os x laopard runn as smooth as it runs on a mac.

That video card is weak.

I would pay a few extra bucks and get Vista Home Premium... or not, if you don't care.

The CPU is "OK"

RAM is kinda slow

Would you consider building your own? You will get SO MUCH MORE for your money.

No point to be a smartass. You know what I mean.

Horrid graphic card, horrid CPU and horrid ram.

To OP get anything around those specs:

CPU: E8xxx or E7xxx or if you wish quad get, Q6600 or Q9xxx

Graphic card: nvidia(from worse to better): 9600GT/8800GT/9800+ or ATI: HD3850/HD3870/HD4850/HD4870

RAM: At least DDRII 800Mhz, don't buy any slower ram. 2GB or more - what is most common toady is 4GB of RAM.

The rest is up to you.

Good luck in your purchase.

can you even explain why is this one better then the other one price wise. pelase

Better hardware, better software.

With the computer I linked to, you get the Quad core (9300) over the E2200. Although the 9300 is the slowest quad core, it's by far faster than the E2200. More cache, higher clock speed, a faster FSB and not to mention two more cores.

You also get the 3450, which is also better than the 9300 GeForce. This is important if you're planning to game.

You get Vista Home Premium instead of Basic. If I were to go out and buy Vista, it would be either Home Premium or Ultimate. Basic is not something I would want to spend hours a day using.

The only downside I can see is half the RAM. 4 gigs (IMHO) is just fine for Vista, esp with a quad core CPU.

HAHHAHA! That's the one I linked you to. Yes, that would be MUCH better than the original you chose. For sure worth the extra 100 C thingies.

Actually, an E2xx0 overclocked to 3+ GHz will not hold back the video card. So even though I might've been a bit sharp on the way I worded it, it continues to stand. A "budget" processor may not have the stock MHz or the cache as the E8400, but once it's overclocked and the system is running properly the GPU will carry the load anyway. So sorry for being a smartass, but we get enough of marketing from the marketing departments. We don't need that here.

RAM doesn't have to be DDR2-800 if the OP isn't overclocking. No processor today has a stock speed of 400 MHz nor does running the RAM any faster net real world gains.

    • Hello, I am not as familiar with AMD CPUs as I am with Intel's, but as I understand it, that's a mid-range CPU from about three years ago.  I would think it to be fine for everyday casual-type use.  A larger SSD might be better, but with storage prices these days that's a decision that has to be carefully thought about.

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.5 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.5 changelog: Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows (DirectSound and ASIO) Fixes several crashes and memory corruption issues Fixes opening several headerless files at once, which previously dropped all but one Improves batch export by suggesting and remembering the destination folder Fixes accented and non-Latin characters in VST plug-in and compressed-archive file names Adds zstd compression support and updates the archive library Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • I did think about a Echo show once and it would be useful to see what my cameras see. But my brother got one and I changed my mind. Adverts and not really worth the price just to see my cameras. I have a load of dots and a Echo Gen 4, they will do.
    • I asking where you are from or live, because if you don't live in the U.K, why are you so bothered? That is another reason I voted out, E.U and people poking their noses in where they should not be. Sadly we still have it, Trump, and his cronies. Putin as well and no doubt others. It makes no difference what we believe, if we made the right choice or not, we are out. As I said to someone when the news first broke we have voted out, we just need to make the best of it. I have no problems with closer ties to the E.U, we still need to trade. Just don't want to be in their club.
