Ugh, I saw the computer advice thread in computer section, I was going to chime in but I won't. Good luck convincing the guy that he's doing the good thing buying an old technology. >__>
Why buy AM2 when Phenom is broke and a cheap C2D beats the old AMD? I'll never understand people. Worse is that other guy recommending a M3A32 for an AM2 CPU build, fuck that board is $240... Then he's suggesting a HD3870, another good suggestion of a broken product.
Anyone with a right mind spending that much would grab a 8800GTS 512, considering a HD3870 Crossfire setup is less powerful than 1 8800GT in just about every DX10 software.
Pandaman, you gotta stop this madness.![]()
I refuse!
He's pretty dead set on AMD it looks like
GTs are still on like, super back order as well, I figured what the hell, may as well let him go AMD/ATi. Someone has to support them

Don't talk behind Lee's back!![]()
Dude if at least they had good products out! The only decent thing would be a HD3870 X2, then again 1 freaking 8800GTS 512 beats the shit outta it.
Who the fuck will go buy a 6400+ ffs. They don't even include the heatsink you know, so he'll need to buy that on top of it.
Or take the version that comes with one, and witness the awesomeness that is a 6400+ fucking heating your whole comp with the so-so provided cooler.

Straighten him out thenI'm too lazy to argue someone hell bent on buying last gen hardware.
would you recommend amd athlon x2's for budget builds?
bbl
but i'd much rather buy a cheap athlon x2 instead of a celeron.
