location?

heh haven't touched hat in months. It's funny if you look at it from a certain point of view.

Well. Dynamic IP's change when you disconnect and reconnect again. And there's a way to mask your IP with programs. It isn't that hard, though I don't know how to do it. :nod:

well yes, but so Is the rest of my family and myself was.. is.. am.. whatever.

And I did think of that when he came back, but as a christian (semi.. whatever) myself, it is more amusing than insulting.

If we can ignore Vadars attempts for the moment? Thanks :)

And also thanks for the advice - ToT if you need any advice (specifically) then please let me know, as it is it's a fairly broad topic which is why I've specified as much as I can from the off....

Redfang, I knew about the difference in speeds etc - but it helps to refer to them "as they're called" :) Nice idea about checking the manufacturers sites before buying though... I'll look into that.

This went off-topic. Ah well.
 
But anyway, I don't care about it. It's not funny, either. :p (Just my opinion, I'm not a religious person (yes, I'm a Christian but that doesn't make me a person who gets easily offended:) )).

Thanks Thunder but I already found my motherboards manual and it only supports CPUs up to 700 Mhz so I'm gonna need a new motherboard too...crap - they're pretty expensive.

Do you know if they sell motherboards that support sdram or are they all gone over to ddram already?

Plus, I'm planning to buy AMD Athlon. I dunno...2 Ghz maybe. Any thoughts? :)

Yes, my people feel offended and humiliated. One week banning and a very embarrassing new title should begin the recovering process.

By professional he means working as head IT man in some bigass company, that does NOT sell computers.

Thunder, since you're doing the motherboard-CPU thing, maybe you could give me some details about their compatibility :)

the most direct relation of motherboard cpu said really simply is that AMD (Athlon and Duron to be more specific) need a Socket A, Pentium III and Celeron require Socket 370 , Pentium 4 goes with Socket 423 or 473. You can get an Socket A motherboard for about 1300 EEK these days (thats some 65-70 USD), with built in soundcard, although I'd reccomend going for an Audigy II, but that requires another 750 EEK.

SDRAM is still out there, and so are motherboards, so that should not be a conflict. I can see right here a perfectly good motherboard for 1200 EEK, with an nForce2 SDRAM chipset.

KT, Levyathan...
Both of you kindly shut up or I'll take up Levyathan on his idea in both your cases without a backward glance, some of you guys are spamming a little to much lately - cut back :)

ToT - You'll be lucky to find an SDRAM motherboard anymore, but to be honest I wouldn't go with one. If you can afford a 2GHz CPU then I'd shell out on 256Mb of DDR RAM as well. It's worth a bit of saving or else the bottleneck will very much be with your RAM.

Edit: Looks above... I stand corrected. Probably because I've only been looking at DDR motherboards, but if you can afford them I still say it's worth the step up.

a 2400+ Athlon XP would make that clock speed approx, though you might get it out by overclocking older ones.  I myself would take a 2200+ Athlon, since the price difference is a good 600 EEK, do prepare for a 2800 approx. loss of money. that would give you some 1,8 GHz.

AFAIK, he just bought 256 megs of SDRAM, so that would be a waste of money then still.

also, SDRAM motherboards are still pretty common here in Estonia, even though no new computers are shipped with it.
ToT, check www.hinnavaatlus.ee for the best look at prices.
