I was just wondering if anyone here knows a lot about computer, and knows when the Intel chip is going to fall, or a new CPU is going to come out for the PC either AMD or Intel... Also I need people's help on buidling a computer for gaming. The cost should be no more than 1500 dollars.

IM currently stuck on everything except CPU- choosing a p4 3.2 HT tech. and monitor, key board, mouse, sound card, speakers are all excluded. I just need help on which mother board, Ram chip, chipset etc to choose from for gaming.

Blaze,

Not to sound snotty, but have you asked this kind of question on a gaming forum? You would think that they'd have the greatest knowledge concerning what would work best for your requirements. No doubt they keep up to date on all the recent innovations and best buy deals. Just a thought.

If this help.....I can tell you what I have, which is set up for gaming

ASUS KR7A-Raid motherboard
AMD Processor 2.0
NVIDIA GeFOrce2 MX graphic card
Hercules Game Theater XP sound card

It cost us about $700 a year ago to build, and it's awsome for games.

To magic... its about building computers and this is a computing forum. Im just making a type of computer i want. Yes I do know this is Unexplained Forum, but i need help on this really badly.

Private message me, I can give you the skinny on everything you need to know about it.

ummm, $1500US?

you could get a very nice pc with that:)
ummm
perhaps look at the new amd 64bit chips?
and a 256meg Radeon 9800 Pro:)
if its for gaming, i reccomend you go with a CRT monitor as LCDs are still inferior in terms of picture quality.
Soundcard perhaps an Audigy2 bby creative

Lots of whatever the fastest ram is supported by the motherboard:P
