Ok
I have decided on most of the components for my new puter now but.
Within the budget i have decided on i now have to choose between:
1) AMD athlon XP2400 and ATI radeon 9700 (nonpro)
or..
2) AMD athlon XP2500 Barton and ATI Radeon 9500PRO.
What combo should i go for? for AH it should be more than fine, but im thinking about AH2 when it comes and getting very smooooth framerates at 1024x768 and 1280x1024.
