Hm, looks like many of you (also seen this in other treads) are
prefering the radeon 9800, and I see a lot of AMD-Prozessors out
there.
I was always afraid buying something other than a intel Pentium.
How are these AMD-CPU's anyway ? I heard they make problems
with some games (but this could be limited to the first AMD's ever,
I'm not uptodate here

), also aren't the Pentiums not a little superior
(but more expensive of course ? )
One more thing about the Graphik-Card. AFAIK Radeon 9800 is the
chipset. Is there any publisher (i.e. Asus and so on), which is better
than the others (I don't care much about the games included, I just
want qualitly).
(edit) about these online-stores, I will rather not buy a PC online to let
him ship from US to Europe (I'm from Germany btw

), but I have
some very good business-contacts which allow me to get some good
price-offers in Computer-technology. I just need to know what I
want, and that's my Problem.
But for starters, I guess the Soundcard you guys mentioned above will do the trick
in any case.
