**pajerokid** · October 15th, 2003 02:49 PM

Speaking of speakers, XMods is offering Klipsch ProMedia speakers for P25,000!!! Sanamagan!

**mbt** · October 15th, 2003 03:02 PM

glennster,

mga 18,000 ata for the Megaworks 5.1, mga ganun din ata yung Logitech Z-680 5.1. kailangan mo ng high-end soundcard for max performance... Audigy 2 lang yung widely available na high-end card dito

pajerokid,

overpriced hehe. :D gusto mo ng FPS2000 ko? mura lang hehehehe

mbt, thanks for the offer, pero i'm not really into expensive speakers

Yung Klispch ProMedia, yun na yung cream of the cream of the crop model. Its not the plain vanilla ProMedia.

anyway, how's the upgrade materializing? have you made up your mind yet? You could also wait around for the AMD Hammer series.

can't wait... sira na yung computer ko e, refuses to run warcraft 3 hehe

Hmmm. Justifiying this early eh?!

well, i'd like to suggest the following for a modest but definitely not slow, setup.

Barton 2500+
Epox 8rda+ Rev 2.0
256MB TwinMOS PC3200 DDRAM
Radeon 9600 Pro

First, the Barton is fast, not to mention very overclockable. it can run smoothly at 3200+ levels. its a little bit more expensive than the 2200 youre planning to buy, but you can definitely squeeze the processing time from this one. And if youre not into overclocking, its prolly time you get into it!

The famous 8rda+ rev2.0 is kinda like a barebones unit. no fuss, a few extras, but is a solid and stable performer. forget the comparison between this and the MSI, as the epox being less stable. Thats crap! Take it from me, never pa ako nag hang with mine! Its rock stable! My FSB is 400Mhz, not bad for a board whose processor only supports 366MHz.

A stick of DDR400 memory is a must! Get a second stick on christmas to activate the Dual memory controllers of your nF2u! Good for about 5% increase in speed. Not much, but better than nothing at all.

And finally, the 96P. Yes, i had one. And it was blazing fast. This should keep in step with all the current games, (this card wont even break a sweat with warcraft3, and is very more than adequate for the Generals Expansion, with all the bells and whistles turned on). If you wanna save a couple of thousand bucks, go for the non-pro, but then again, kaunti lang and pro na.Unlike my 9800 and 9800P dillema, 6000+ ang price difference.

It's DX9 compliance will keep you happy even when HL2 arrives. This card has serious horsepower!

B.I. ba ako Marv? :evillaugh
