    New computer...

    Just finished building it a couple minutes ago...

    Its got:

    Intel Celeron 336 64bit processor with 533mhz FSB running at 2.8GHz
    Biostar P4M800-M7A Micro ATX motherboard Socket LGA775
    1GB Corsair PC3200 DDR-SDRAM Memory w/ 2.5 CAS latency
    Western Digital 120GB hard drive
    DVD-burner
    Windows XP with Vista upgrade coupon I'll probably never use.

    I'm using the onboard video for now, its actually decent.
    I'm saving for an XFX GeForce 7600GT 256mb GDDR3 graphics card, but we will see.

    -Mike

    nice not to bad man. my 32 bit amd 2800+xp-mp will get up to 2.7 lol or did before i tryd pushing it further. then it died. i us to love overclocking.


    with the rite cooling you could push maybe about 3.3 or more but it is a celeron. watch it man them celerons can burn up quick.
    down to parts because i no longer have a place to ride trikes.

    GIT IT RAAAGGGGG !!!!

    Nice start Mike!!
    Sounds good except for the Celeron chip,there not very good in my opinion!
    I did mine last year and used an Intel D945PVS MB with a P4 3.2 chip.
    2 gigs of Kbyte 4200 DDR2
    WD 80 gig IDE HD
    Maxtor 250 gig sata HD
    GeForce 7600GT PCI-E video
    Toshiba DVD rom
    Lite-on DVD burner with lite scribe
    Lots of Ebay stuff,case,cables ect..
    Took me 10 months to get it going lol!!!!!!!!
    Being poor sucks,I spent every penny I got for Christmas,Birthday and more!!
    I figured it better last awhile so I spent more than I should have!
    But whats cool is that you did it yourself!!!
    Nothing like the feeling of building your own computer!
