2 Questions?

1 I'm trying to put 2 adequate computers togeather for my daughters on our peer to peer network. PC Gamer recommended the gigabyte GA-6VX7-4X as the cheap gamers MOBO. They paired it with a celeron 700.
This was they're April edition. Has anythig really changed in the last 3 months or is this still a good (adequate) choice?

2 I recently purchased an asus A7V MOBO as it was reccomended in the same issue. I bought a T-Bird 1.0Ghzw200/266 FSB I want to run games of the quality that Pcgamer puts out with it's mag. It's fun to play the demo's and make them work!! I got 256mb pc133 ram. Will this work or did I get screwed?

In answer to your second system: I don't know. Gaming is as dependant on the graphics card as it is on the rest of the system. However, so far the specs look GREAT, and you will be able to play any game on the market, so long as you have a decent graphics card.

When it comes to putting a cheap system together for gaming, you really should go with an Athlon. They are cheaper than the PIII with better performance. Remember to invest an decent amount in the graphics card, I would recommend a GeForce 2 GTS (~$170), or for the budget a GeForce 2 MX (~$99).
