I have been using a Pentium 4 3.0 Ghz, and and AMD 2.1 Ghz since now, but now I would like to shift in to the latest that technology can offer me. Can any one let me know of a suitible configeration required to run heavy multimedia Applications like Poser, Maya, and 3D's Max?

I have a 17" VGA Display, 250 GB SATA II Hard disk, Asus DVD-DL/RW drive, Key B and Mouse.........

Any good configerations anyone can recomand, for a Processor, Main Board, Ram, VGA Cards, SMPSU, Casings.......???? I have a tight budget around 500$ approx

What is the main advantage in opting for a AMD or Intel Solution? Does AMD tend to get hot after heavy use?

I use a D Link 802,11g/2.4ghz wireless router to service the laptop in my downstairs. It is hooked from my satalite high speed ISP xplornet.com. Lately it has been cutting out and I have to re power the router up for it to start working again. It may last 1 day or 1 week but sooner or later it does it again. It never seems to do it while I am on line....just after long periods of non use. Lately it happens alot.

Can you offer suggestions.

Thanks Ian

i'm getting this mother board:
http://www.cclonline.com/product-info.asp?product_id=13989
what do you think about it?
it say's it supports DDR3, does this mean that it only supports DDR3 or it also supurt DDR2. i mean can i also have DDR2 RAMs in it?

one more question:
if i get a motherboard which suports both DDR2 and DDR3, can i have difrent RAMs of each or i have to have, either DDR2 or DDR3. i mean can i have a DDR2 and a DDR3 at the same time?

Ok... I recently put in a new power supply in my computer because with the old one the computer would turn on for about 10 seconds and automatically turn off. Well after putting the new power supply in, the computer stays on but makes like 10 beeping noises when it boots up. My problem is, my monitor is not getting a signal from the computer so I am not getting a display. I have tried TWO different working monitors. Now, I recently realized that there is no ram sticks in the two slots that my computer has. A couple people on here were saying that the computer wouldn't run without the RAM. Well im positive there is none, yet the computer still stays on. Does any one know what store sells RAM and if having none could be the reason my monitor isn't working?

i am currently using a nvidia geforce 7600gt(agp) and in most games its fine,however in some though especially racing games(need for speed most wanted) theres a minimal amount of lag(stuttering) and as much as i have tried various solutions(driver updates,direct x update,psu upgrade,and even interior clean of fans i still experience lag in some games
my p.c is a pentium 4 (hyper threaded)3.4ghz,1gb (pc3200) ddr ram,geforce 7600gt(agp),550watt psu,2 x 250gb hdd
as you can see although core 2 duo class its certainly not slow
why should i still suffer this lag in some games,one forum post suggested it could be that i am using a onboard audio adapter and i should invest in a dedicated sound card(audigy ect)
what are your views on this problem,has anyone had this problem,have i missed something
any advice and ideas would be really appreciated
thanks guys !
