The Athlon 64 3000+, A Budget Gamer's Perspective

Posted by timothy on from the enjoy-the-las-vegas-effect dept.

VL contributes a link to Viperlair's budget-conscious and game-oriented review of an AMD processor that's not on the bleeding edge, but makes a good showing for the money: "For the price of the Socket-939, you can pick up an A64 3000+, K8T800 based motherboard, and a decent mid-range video card. For gamers on a budget, I think the choice is obvious."

    The big factor is PCI-E. Any board which doesn't have it is pretty much obsolete-on-arrival.
