Would a pc based on this "AMD Athlon™ 64 FX-53" cpu be considered as near top of the range? Also with 2gb ram, 7800gt graphics.
Strongly thinking about it.

Mr Mister said:the fx53 is the 130nm process and doesnt have support for SSE3. If i were you i would build one myself. The fx53 is equal in power to the athlon 64 4000 which is now made on a 90nm process. Plus i think it needs ecc ram?
True, I for one advocate dividers but How far will the GeIL go and the timings are quite poor so the ZX is a good option. It's still within the budget .Minstadave said:Its not essential TBH, just use a divider and you probably won't see much difference.
