Amd 64x2 Cpu

    Chances are , again I'm in the wrong slot again,
    A little help please.
    I have a AMD athlon 64x2 3800+ CPU with heatsink,
    And a SOYO KT333 DRAGON platinum motherboard.
    Now I have googled, all farting day, and cannot work
    out if I should go for the MobO, or the PSU.
    I am not a gamer, so no high specs required, just something decent.
    I have lots of bits: sound, graphics, Tv, extra USB , LAN and other stuff.
    What I am looking for is advice on PSU and which way to go.
    Should I keep the 64x2 and build around that, or concentrate on the Dragon MoBo
    I don't want to mess up any Aderts ads, so any advice welcome, even a guide to a website , would be welcome .

    /Sigh

    You really should swop nicks with Mirror, given your ability to do just that! :p

    And I'm fairly sure I've never infactucted a human, let alone a pony ... ;)

    Folks,
    I really do not want to cause upset.
    I have big trouble using Boards properly.
    I said that in the first line,
    as far as reading and writing are concerned, I'm alright.
    I can read all the labels, sometimes I pick up the wrong cans.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,509 ✭✭✭✭randylonghorn


    MYTOTE, you haven't caused any upset, relax.

    The answer you needed are in posts 3 and 4:

    Hopefully the people there will be able to help you, they're certainly the most likely to be able to.

    After that people who know one another are taking the pish out of one another ... don't mind them / us.
