Just built it, cost me about 1000 bux alltogether

Gigabyte Brand Motherboard
2 gig memory
AMD Athlon 64 Dual Core Processor
300 Gig hard drive
-150 GB Windows XP
-150 GB RedHat Enterprise Linux
Onboard NVIDIA GeForce 6100 nForce 430 GPU
Hi Definition Audio
Sexy ExtremeEngine 3T case (http://images.gfx.no/151/151037/i_151037-564x376.jpg)
Microsoft Wireless Laser keyboard
Microsoft Wireless Invisible Laser Mouse
Hidef Gateway monitor

How is it?

**Urza** · 03-07-2007, 05:53 PM

Now are we going to be subjected to an onslaught of "look at my new compy !!?1?!/1//" threads? Only time will tell.

As in onboard gfx card, do you mean it has its own card, or is it built into the motherboard?

**Bachonga** · 03-07-2007, 08:12 PM

Yeah, onboard is built in. And I know which board he is referring to and I know it is built in. It is a nice board, but I really don't think it's worth it. The 6100 doesn't cut it. It's nice to have it built in, but I'd rather buy a cheaper board with no real extra graphics built in and buy a graphics card.
All in all the setup looks nice, except I'm more of an Intel guy. And I would have got a different keyboard and mouse, I hate the Microsoft brand ones, they just don't feel too comfortable for me.

Well right now there are very few intel motherboards with decent onboard graphics. I personally would have waited a while now that ATI and AMD are together. Their motherboards with onboard graphics should be a lot better than the nVidia AMD combo.

**Theknightinhell** · 03-08-2007, 05:08 AM

I just blew away Vista, it's a beautiful OS graphic wise, but compatibility sucks and virtually nothing I actually wanted to run ran.

**Siouxsie** · 03-08-2007, 05:46 AM

The graphics card needs upgrading, imo. Onboard graphics just don't cut it.

**Nevada** · 03-08-2007, 05:55 AM

im with Siouxsie on the graphics card, onboard is utter ****.

**Realn0whereman** · 03-08-2007, 06:16 AM

At this point in time there isn't really any reason to get Vista for those who use their compy to play games.

Can the mouse be inserted into my ass? If not, I don't see why you should use the word gay in a derogatory manner towards an innanimate object.

It's more of a media center kinda card. It can handle 720p video without any stuttering provided you have the nVidia purevideo codec. Also since its onboard, there is less noise and costs considerably less than a passively cooled Geforce 6 series card.
I use a motherboards with a built in Geforce 6150 when I build PCs for non gamers and it's fine for that purpose.

I hate the case though. That fan sacrifices silence and efficiency in order to look 'cool'. Component quality is always inversley propoertional to the amount of LEDs on it

**dracule** · 03-08-2007, 10:49 AM

you should change your partitions to look a little more like this:

50gb XP
20gb Linux
230gb Shared files in fat32

**PeterBryant** · 03-08-2007, 11:04 AM

could you give more detail like how fast is your processor and witch Gigabyte Brand Motherboard did you get
