Hi all i'm going to build a PC for my nephew using an Athlon 2000xp which i have on an ECS K7S5A board (which was a bit of a dog), the chip is nearly new so he should get a couple years out of it all being well. I have chosen the following Components Motherboard MSI K7N2 Delta FSR Socket A nforce2 AGP8x 5.1channel audio LAN, HD Excelstor ESJ880 80GB 7200rpm ATA/100 2MB Cache, Graphics Card Gainward Fx5500 256MB DVI TV-Out Retail Box, Ram Crucial 512mb DDR 333MHz PC2700 Memory Module (£34.78) or Crucial 512MB DDR PC2100 266MHz (£36.85).Which do you think would be best suited to the board
?? and why is the faster ram cheaper than the pc2100 ??, that might be an error on the e-buyer site wouldn't be the first time. Rom Drive Lite-On SOHD-16P9S 16x48x DVD-ROM Internal IDE (Beige) - Retail Box, OS Microsoft OEM Windows XP Home Edition SP2 - 1Pk, all the above will be bought from e-buyer when there back in stock. The Case i'm thinking of is this one from aria Emermax Twilight Midi 400W Black, i've had one of these before and it was ok. What do you think of the Motherboard ? have any of you used it ? do you know of any issues with it ??. The PC will not be overclocked and will mainly be used for School Work, the internet and to play a few games on like Call of Duty, Battlefield Vietnam, Medal of Honour, main requirement is that it be stable, any addvice on the above would be most appreciated thanks in advance. Could you please recomend a cpu heatsink i was going to use a Coolermaster CP5-8JD1F but dont seem to be able to find one cheer's.
