I want to buy a new P-4, System and need advise as to which motherboard and chipset should I buy.
My primary use is for stock market data analysis and charting those data, and software for that requires computing power but not as much as the latest games .I also like to download and visit information from various websites specially Tom?s..
I am not a Game person, so am not worried about 3-D applications.
In my country following two configurations are available for the price I can afford.
My major concern is about the two motherboards namely Intel 845 G and Intel 845 GRG.
Salesman said 845 GRG Is a motherboard with Onboard AGP with Dynamic RAM ( 8MB To 48MB as required by application), Onboard LAN, Onboard audio. I know nothing about Motherboards.
I heard good things about 845 G on this site but never heard of 845 GRG.
Both Systems are almost the same price so quality, Reliability and Upgrading capability are my only concern. Unfortunately I don?t have a choice of AMD and below two systems are the only choice I have..
System ? 1
P-4, 2.26 GHz
Intel 845 GRG Motherboard
512 KB Cache
128 MB DDR SDRAM ( 266 Mhz ), I will Upgrade to 256 MB
Onboard AGP ( With Dynamic RAM, 8 MB To 48 MB depending on application ) which I don?t understand
Onboard LAN
Onboard audio
40 GB 7200 RPM HDD
Other stuff is regular like Keyboard, Scroll Mouse, 56 K Internal Modem, 180 Watt Speakers
System ? 2
P-4 2.26 GHz
Intel 845 G Motherboard
128 MB DDR SDRAM ( 266 MHz )
512 KB Cache
40 GB 7200 RPM HDD
Rest is Optional but I can also buy their regular stuff like Keyboard, Scroll Mouse, 56 K Internal Modem, 180 Watt Speakers
Would really appreciate any help.
