Please help on mobo bundle
Is this a good bundle to put together? My friend doesn't want to spend a lot, wants dual core, doesn't need seperate GPU:
1 x ASUS M4A78LT-M LE AMD 760G Socket AM3 DVI VGA Out 8 CHannel Audio MATX Motherboard
1 x AMD Athlon X2 240 2.8GHz Socket AM3 2MB Cache Retail Box Processor
1 x Kingston 2GB DDR3 1066MHz i5 Memory Module CL7 1.5V
Thanks

Re: Please help on mobo bundle
Not my budget, a mates. He just wants a nice dual core cpu, DDR3 ram and mobo with onboard GPU.
Re: Please help on mobo bundle
Well surely he has a budget? If you tell us a budget, we can help you (or basically CAT can).

LOL. Don't know any more. All i know is that my mate is after a dual core CPU. 2 gig DDR3 ram, Mobo with onboard graphics. He doesnt game and uses PC for internet and some word processing.
Re: Please help on mobo bundle
If price is the foremost concern tell him to get a Celeron E3300, a Gigabyte iG31 Motherboard, and 2GB of cheap DDR2 memory.
Total cost ~ £110. Job Done.
That said, the components you've picked out meet the requirements you've been given. Not sure what kind of advice you're asking for really...?
Re: Please help on mobo bundle
As i said, it has to be DDR3 , Dual Core CPU and a motherboard with onboard GPU
Re: Please help on mobo bundle
Why does it have to be DDR3? It's more expensive for no noticable performance gain for his usage pattern. If he's gonna be that daft about it tell him to sort it out himself ;)
Otherwise your only sensible choice is the parts you've already selected.
Re: Please help on mobo bundle
lazer yeah it will do the job.
Re: Please help on mobo bundle
