Maybe, i will upgrade my PC.. i'm now having an Intel E2180 Dual core, with Foxconn P43A motherbord, and a Nvidia 9600GSO.. the main things, other things are less important, exept the memory. I have XP Prof.

Now this
Intel Q9650 Quad Core: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6819115130

Intel DP45SG: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6813121348

GeForce GTX 260 : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6814130497


Is this a good basic system?? i will see for the other parts..


Another question: Is it true that XP has a memory limit of 4GB??

EDIT: Is it true that Newegg only sends to America, caus i live in Holland, so they won't send me the stuff :evil:
Cheers!

All I can say is that you will have a very good system when you're finished!

Yes, that is very much the case, and although Vista can handle more it doesn't have a good reputation, second only to Windows ME as Microsofts answer to the Titanic. I don't know about Windows 7.

Dualcore are much better than quadcore in IL-2, sugest a Intel E8600 or i7920

Videocard sugestion check for higth memory frequecy, sugest GF275

4GB with high frequecy your motherboard suport

Hoi!

Ik was ook lang aan het zoeken naar een nieuwe pc. Uiteindelijk gewoon tegenaangelopen, toevallig. Ik heb m bij officecentre, daar kun je eens kijken. Of alternate, informatique, MaxPC, dat zijn allemaal goede retailers op dat gebied.

Ik heb uiteindelijk een systeem voor de toekomts, een Acer M7720, maar daar betaal je wel veel voor. Ik kocht een showroommodel, bijna nagelnieuw maar ik betaalde de helft, zo'n 600 euro.

Je moet goed opletten en als je echt goedkoop wilt wezen moet je je computer zelf bouwen. Dan zoek je gewoon de laagst geprijsde aanbieder op.

Nou ik zie het wel.

Gr, Leopard

1st.... 260 has 896mb :wink:
2nd : go for a Q9550... it's 200$ less than the 9650. the only difference is the multiplicator. (wich is not a prob....)
3rd: I know that Asus P5Q Pro (or deluxe) overclocked very well and are a good choice as a P45 chipset
4th: its not XP, vista or win7 that limits 4gb or ram or more. its the 32 or 64bit version.... :roll:
5th: you'll need a new power suplie
6th: good ram will make a little difference... but will make one :wink:

I7 920 is a quad core..... :roll:
+ he will need brand new memory...as it's DDR3

I don,t think dual or quad is better... since IL2 is only using one core... wich you can assaign in the config.ini
