| Post subject: | CPU suggestions wanted |
I upgraded my gaming machine and have leftover parts that I plan on using to build a new mythbox. Right now my setup runs fine on an old Duron 800Mhz machine with 500 megs of ram. My leftover parts are an Asus LGA775 motherboard with 1 gig of DDR and a fan. Im trying to decide on what priocessor to get. I can get a 2 gig Celeron super cheap or a 2 gig Intel P4 for a bit more. I hear the P4's take gobs of power when idle which is what my setup will be doing most of the time since I never plan on turning it off. Maybe I should ditch the mother board and get a new one with a Pentuim M processor that draws very little power. Any suggestions would be great. Mike ________ Box vaporizers |

If you're gonna ditch the motherboard, you might aswell get an athlon 64. Much lower power consumption than the P4. A Pentium M setup is quite expensive (at least in the UK) |
