= $876.52My brother said though that the power supply wont run the pc. He said itll die on me as soon asi play a game.he said this onewont though. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371002 i dont know any of this so please help. and he also sed the RAMS bad. is it? I heard that will do well. I dont know what to think. And he also said the motherboard sucks but i dont know how that affects games.Uh, this power supply bad? And this RAM?
The motherboard truly does suck. I'd suggest spending $20 more for the MSI K9N Neo-F.[url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130050[/url]Pros? Four DDR2 slots, newer northbridge chipset, newer audio chip. :)The power supply is fine.. if you want to be safe, spend another $20 for this one.[url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817189014[/url]Has active PFC, 80% efficiency, 36 amps on the 12V.The Antec True Power 550W that your brother suggested is nice, but OCZ's StealthXStream 600W is a much better choice in that price range. :P[url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817341010[/url]The RAM is fine, but AMD processors run more efficiently with faster RAM due to the integrated memory controller... so you should aim for DDR2 800 RAM.[url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211066[/url]Uh, this power supply bad? And this RAM?
The power supply is really not fine. Your brother is right, it will damage your PC. The one he suggested is good, but kind of an older design.Iwouldgowiththis:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817256008
