Well I talked to a few of you in the Performance test 6.0 thread and said that I'd start a thread for my new computer so here it is. I'm not sure that I am confident in building it from the ground up, I'd know how to basically "put it all together" and wire it all where it needs to go but I wouldn't know where to go from there as in can I just boot directly to my XP disc and go to town or what needs to be done. Anyways if I feel confident (which I probably will after some talking w/ you guys) I'll need a list of what to buy.
I put together a computer w/ you guys before but it wasn't AMD and I want to make the switch, so if you get bored in the next few days and feel like posting a list of links (new egg preferred) as to how you'd build an AMD computer to be used for video editing/word processing/high intensity programs (for my church)/serious multitasking etc. for under $1400 what would it be?
I'm not stuck on much except that it'll have to have at least a gig of ram, and I've been eyeing (sp?) the 74gig 10,000rpm hd's if they really make a difference. Anyways have at it and don't feel obligated I was just asked to start this thread by some guys on here. Thanks in advance for the help.
