Mid level gaming pc

[Jun aka Pekto]

Yeah here in RP its still hard to find DDR3 memory and if you do its pricey. I might go the Intel route na nga lang... AMD is just weak in this country, its an Intel country (they use to have a plant here)...

You could wait til next year when DDR3 is more established over there. After all, the i7 is coming to RP eventually. That platform will need DDR3 as well.

Me, the only reason I'm buying parts now is because the motherboard of my once mighty X2 4200+ pc fell victim to the bulged and leaky capacitor problem. I was planning to soldier on with it until next year or even later. It was working great with Windows 7 RC until bad capacitors put an abrupt end to it. It seems all the Socket 939 motherboards have disappeared both retail and online. So, time for newer stuff.
