New PC - Need Help Hi guys Well I fianlly need a new PC my P 3 1GHZ is crashing on me all the time so I have to put some thing new together The problem is I have been studying 3D the last few months and I am not up to date on all the latest and greates CPU's and MB's .... the last time I was researching for a new PC was when the 1.6a, Abit TH7II were the best bang for the buck. Even today I want the best bang for the buck so I would appreciate anyone tell me what currently is the best combo out there ... I dont care if its DDR or Rambus ... I just want the best bang for the buck ... and no I dont mean ' Mustang Ranch " I am more interested in Intel than Amd. I have an XP server but I want the workstation to be Intel if at all possible .... so what combos should I look at

What about Rambus in the futre ... is there going to be a future for it or if I go this route will it be out obsolited in a years time I was thinking going DDR .... so what is best right now the new SiS boards or boards like the BD7 II ..... damn the last time I checked these boards the BD7 II wasnt even being talked about as a future board Whats the word on the BD7 II .... I plan to OC but not necessarily take it to the max I dont mind going with Rambus but I dont want Rambus to be gone from the marlet in a year and I thought it was going to From the current DDR chipsets is it true that the new SiS chepset kicks ass over boards like the BD7 II The 1.6a is 139 the 2.0a is 189 ..... isnt the 2.0a the better deal ..... what can I expect on average for 2.0a with respect to OC

There's some fairly large questions over the validity of the Rambus patents, as I'm sure you're aware. Should the patents be shown to be invalid, then I don't see Rambus as a company any longer. On the other hand, if the patents are invalid, then memory manufacturers can produce Rambus parts without paying a license fee. This could encourage Rambus parts, at the expense of Rambus the company. Could swing either way! AidanII

Regarding your OLD system. Couple things I would do is Clean out the heatsync/fan and scan for viruses. And when boxes are running good, check out our Folding @ Home section!! Thanks, Rob
