Hi,
One of my friend wants one budget system based on Athlon XP. He wants to use onboard video card due to lack of budget. I have given him the following config. Please give me some suggestions on this config. I heard this Asus board has some bugs in it....like it restarts again and again without any reason. Is this true?
1.AMD Athlon XP 2600+ Processor (333MHz FSB, 512KB L2 cache, Barton Core)
2.Asus A7N8X-VM motherboard (nVidia nForce2 IGP chipset)
3.Kingston ValueRAM 1024MB dual channel DDR at 333MHz (PC2700) (2x 512MB) (model no.- KVR333x64C25)
4.Western Digital Caviar 80GB, 7200rpm Ultra ATA hard drive with 2MB Cache (model no.- WD800BB)
5.LiteOn 52x32x52x CD-RW drive
6.Sony 1.44MB floppy drive
7.ViewSonic E71f DynaFlat 17” CRT colour monitor
8.Logitech standard keyboard deluxe (PS/2)
9.Logitech value optical mouse (PS/2)
10.Altec Lansing 221 2.1 speakers
Please help..!
He need to run some softwares which requires minimum 512MB RAM. As this board uses onboard video card he'll be not able to use full 512MB RAM, if I installed 512MB of RAM...this is the reason why I have given 1GB of RAM.
