As what I mentioned in my previous post, that there will be a new PC building project.
The first batch of parts arrived yesterday. This marks the official commencing of Project 955.
Well, perhaps this is the most pathetic project.. lots of parts need to borrow..
Here’s the first batch’s item:
- CPU – AMD Phenom II x4 955 3.2GHz
- Motherboard – ASUS M4A77TD-PRO [AM3 socket | AMD770+SB710 chipset | DDR3]
- RAM – Mushkin 2GB DDR3 1333MHz
Future (coming soon perhaps…):
- PSU – SilverStone Strider ST50F-230 500W / borrow PSU…
- Case – Thermaltake V3 / borrow casing or no casing lolx..
recycled or borrowed parts:
- HDD – Samsung Spinpoint HM160HI 2.5″ 160GB 5400rpm (recycled from external hdd)
- GPU – XFX nVidia Geforce 8600GT XXX edition with Zalman fan (borrowed)
- Drive – recycled…
Speaking of who wanted this kind of PC build – the person is me…
My budget is quite tight and only capable of buying the processor, motherboard and RAM. Other parts I have to recycle from old PCs or borrow from others.
The priority is to have the computer running at the lowest cost and then only upgrade the components one by one.
As conclusion, this is a long term or a step by step project…
By the way, the open box impression will only be posted after 6th February which is after my Semester Final Examination.
Until then see ya.
