Subject: [PCBUILD] AMD Advice For Noob Building First Project PC


> Greetings all.  I am delving into the world of "build your own" pc's.  I
have been looking at processors at Newegg.com.  Since my focus is gaming, my
understanding is that AMD may be the way to go.
>
> My question: Should I go Athlon 64 or some other route?  This will be a
project machine that I will be jacking around with alot.  I want to try
overclocking.  I want to play games.  I want the frame rates to be decent to
smoking on new and newer games (Far Cry, UT 2004, Doom 3).
>
> I know you ALL have much more experience than I.  Any suggestions or
advice?  I have been reading a TON of stuff, but nothing is ever very clear.
>
> Thank you for your guidance and instruction here.  I am learnign alot.
