Hey everyone,
I've decided to pool my cash and build my own PC. I don't plan on doing much more than SW Battlefront II or Civ4. Other than that It'll be just word processing and I'll mess around with various Linux distros. I'll have definitely a multiboot system with openSUSE, Ubuntu, and Fedora. Since I don't own a decent Windows OS, I'll be going with Cedega, which I'll be using with Fedora, openSUSE, and/or Ubuntu. I'll probably add more along the way :wink:. Here is the configuration I'd like to go with (so far):
MSI Barebone from NewEgg.
Western Digital 160 GB HD from NewEgg.
Kingston 1GB RAM from NewEgg.
AMD Athlon 64 X2 2.0 GHz processor from NewEgg.
I already have a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and two CD drives, and I might go with one of these DVD drives:
Sony 16x DVD and CD burner from NewEgg.
Samsung CD and DVD burner from NewEgg.
Any brands or products to stay away from? Any suggestions? Comments are appreciated.
Kevin
