and sorry mr_anderson187 already sold my p4 bits to my dad :p
rofl... glad to hear its up and running! Mine had an advers afect... my 3dmark score is 400 points below my 3.8 P4.... :crazy:
On a side note to anderson I still have my P4 lying around... :p
If you can't beat your P4 2k1 score with an A64 you haven't got your settings right. That is, unless your P4 is an EE. I'd bet my 3200+ spanks your P4 in 2k1, and that's the slowest A64 I have.
i must admit even after seeing all the reviews etc i didnt think that the a64 would be beat a p4 that had a 1000Mhz higher clock speed but i m glad it does :)
2.34gig at the mo just about to resume getting it higher, if i can hit 2.8ish gig i will be happy :D , but i think heat is going to be an issue as its running in the 50's under load already
Obviously I dont know what youre gonna use the system for, but I'd say that the 4200 GPU that you want to put in will be a bit of a bottleneck.
*Hopes an A64 system is in stocking*
Happy Christmas! (I know Im early, just in the mood!)
