    awastedlife Dynodamon NMBr2d2 I know you guys know quite a bit about computers... What are your opinions on dead's and ndv's computer builds? What one would you go for?

    Its relatively obvious between those 2, I got to do stuff soon so this'll be quick. NDV is more expensive and lacks your OS, and also has a lower amount of memory. Dead's is less expensive with more memory than NDV's build, but its got the APU. If it were me I would drop the win7 pro and get home premium 64bit, and that'll open open up space for the GPU/CPU instead of APU. Idk a TON about cooling and stuff, but honestly I think you can do without it and just take the 25 from the cooling, the 30 from the OS and then drop to a CPU (Like this guy) for another 25 or so to get a video card for 80, and the overall price will be just about the same.

    sorry NMB, but the cooling is needed for AMD, they run HOT :)

    Yeah, definitely get a good CPU fan or heatsink, with plenty of thermal gel on the CPU.
