Cheers for the graphics advice

How would I overclock my CPU?

The bios has nothing in it about CPU speed.

Hi taka, i reckon you can get at least 1100mhz out of that, also the older athlons were easy to unlock the multipliers, you can actually do it with a pencil you know!, as for the graphics i would get the fx.

As we have seemed to migrate to graphics cards in this topic, which should I get, a GigaByte Maya 2 Radeon 9700 Pro or and Sparkle Geforce FX?

An as a note, does anyone know of anywhere else that sells Geforce FX graphics cards so I can compare prices?

I thought I would repost this, as AMD_MAN hasn't replyed yet.

A TI4800 will blow the doors off UT2K3, UT2, Doom 3 or anything else you feed to it over the next 18 months or so.

Lets rephrase that (its getting late)
I was originall going for 80 gig... will a 4800 SE play UT2003 okay? I'm not asking for it to go too fast like the ATI.. which seems to have caused a few probs with some people.
a nvidia seems a safer bet that it will work i will probably get a 120 gb hdd since it should shave a few quid of instead of going for the 9700 pro....

80 gig... will a 4800 SE play UT2003 okay? I'm not asking for overboard like the ATI.. seems it has a few probs with some people and a nvidia seems a safer go will probably get a 120 gb hdd since it should shave a few quid of instead of going for the 9700 pro....

Thats plenty, save the money and get a higher cpu or more ram or faster ram or even a bigger hard drive.

Just found out its a Ti4400 but with 8x.
