Description of the problem:
What are the best CPUs, motherboards, memory, graphics cards, sound cards, network cards, monitors, mice, speakers, and so far? What brand? How much does it cost? (A little not to seek the best, but seek the most expensive meaning ah)!
!
Analysis:
The CPU was going to be Intel's newly released Pentium4 570J (3.8GHz), but because Intel SLI motherboards are not so easy to find, we ended up targeting AMD's 64-bit platform - AMD's newly released Athlon 4 570J. AMD's newly released Athlon64 4000+ is the most powerful of AMD's home desktop platforms, featuring a Socket 939 interface, 0.13-micron process, ClawHammer core, 1.5V voltage, and 1MB of L2 cache, which is much more powerful than the previous generation's NewCastle core. Athlon64 3800+'s 512KB L2 cache. However, the 4000+ and 3800+ have the same main clock frequency, both at 2.4 GHz. Although the main clock frequency is only 2.4 GHz, it relies on the powerful 64-bit architecture that allows Athlon64 to challenge Intel's higher frequency products at a lower main clock frequency, and the Athlon64 4000+ has test scores comparable to the Pentium4 570, making it the most powerful AMD home desktop processor The Athlon64 4000+ is the most powerful AMD home desktop processor.

Memory Corsair TWINX2048-3200CPT is a rare extreme memory stick in the market, the careful selection of raw materials coupled with excellent manufacturing process and strict inspection system, make Corsair memory become the overclocking players and enthusiasts of the favorite.TWINX series is a dual-channel memory introduced by Corsair, which is designed for gamers who form a dual-channel memory mode.TWINX2048-3200C2PT consists of two 1GB DDR400 memory sticks, which work at 400MHz with a 2-3-3-6 memory timing sequence.We plan to purchase 2 sets of Corsair TWINX2048-3200C2PT for successful people. memory to make up a total of 4GB. Although the TWINX2048-3200C2PT×2 may not be as fast as the TWINX1024-3200XLPRO×2 (2GB total) with 2-2-2-5 timings, but don't forget our motto is "not the best but the most expensive", doubling the memory capacity will make the successful person more powerful. Double the memory capacity will make the successful man look good. The price for a single set is 5960 RMB.

The choice of hard disk drive is actually relatively simple, large capacity and reliability of use is our assessment point. Although SCSI hard disk both operating speed and reliability than SATA and IDE interface hard disk to be better, but because to single with SCSI card is no longer belong to the category of home configuration, so we use SATA RAID mode to hard disk combination. Hitachi's 7K400 is currently on the market with the largest capacity, one of the fastest hard disk, single-disk capacity of 80GB, the total capacity of up to 400GB, the speed of this hard disk is 7200 rpm, SATA interface, the internal maximum data transfer rate of 94.6MB / S, the noise of the work of 31dB. We chose to use the 4 pieces of the 7K400 RAID 0 +1 mode, not only a substantial increase in speed, but also to ensure the reliability of use. But also to ensure the reliability of use, after the combination of this computer will have close to the speed of SCSI hard disk and 800GB of horror capacity. The price for a single hard disk is $3585.

For the motherboard we chose ASUS's latest A8N-SLI Deluxe motherboard, which uses the nVIDIA nForce4 SLI chipset, and the best feature is that it supports nVIDIA's SLI technology, which allows you to plug in two PCI-E cards at the same time on the motherboard to form a single, integrated, and fully configurable graphics card. The A8N-SLI Deluxe features a Socket 939 interface that supports the latest Athlon 64 FX and Athlon 64 processors, four memory slots that support dual-channel DDR400/333/266 memory, and a maximum content capacity of 4GB. the motherboard comes with three 32-bit PCI slots, four SATA, 4 SATAII ports, 2 IDE ports, support for RAID 0/1/0+1/JBOD, in addition to integrated 7.1 channel sound card, 2 Gigabit LAN, 10 USB2.0 ports and 2 1394 ports. In terms of overclocking, the A8N-SLI Deluxe is capable of adjusting parameters such as FSB, memory timings, cooling fans, and voltages via nVIDIA nTune software, eliminating the need to go into the BIOS to make adjustments. This motherboard is priced at $1850.

The graphics card was originally going to be two PCI-E nVIDIA GeForce 6800 Ultra to form the most powerful SLI combo, but because it was so hard to get in China, we were forced to switch to MSI's NX6800GT-T2D256E graphics card. The MSI NX6800GT-T2D256E is designed with a red PCB board, and the display chip is the GeForce 6800GT, which is second only to the GeForce 6800Ultra in terms of performance. It has a PCI Express x16 interface, 256-bit 256MB of GDDR3 memory, and a core frequency of 350MHz, with a memory frequency of 1000MHz. The NX6800GT-T2D256E supports dual DVI ports, one TV-OUT port, and utilizes MSI's exclusive Copper ULTRA cooling technology, which not only provides good heat dissipation, but also reduces noise.The NX6800GT-T2D256E supports SLI technology, which provides much more than a single GeForce 6800 Ultra. The GeForce 6800 Ultra's performance, whether it's DOOM3 or HalfLife2, is a piece of cake with the NX6800GT-T2D256E SLI. A single graphics card is priced at $3999.

The idea of choosing an optical drive is that each one has its own role to play, with the SONY DRU-710A DVD burner for data storage, the Pioneer DVD-121SA DVD-ROM for user DVD movie playback, and the BenQ 56X Enhanced White CD-ROM for reading D-panel disks and CDs. records, a combination that's extravagant but really works. The three products are priced at $998, $269 and $200 respectively.

For the monitor displays, neither the large 21-inch extremely large screen CRT, nor the fast response time LCD monitors can satisfy our requirements. Because one has radiation, a display area is too small. After careful selection, we finally chose Philips 300WN5 30-inch LCD TV. Philips 300WN5 has a large display area, 30 inches of display area, whether as a computer display screen, play games or watch TV have been enough, and approximate 16:9 display ratio to watch the movie is only a "cool" word to describe. In addition, as a new product launched not long ago, 300WN5 also has the latest technical features, 16ms response time, 1280 x 768 resolution, 500:1 contrast ratio, 500 lumens of high brightness, ultra-wide viewing angle of 176 degrees, DVI, VGA, CVBS, S-Video and other input interfaces, picture-in-picture function, support for a variety of HDTV format, built-in 5W x 2 stereo speakers, wireless remote control, 100 preset channels and so on are absolutely mainstream features. The price is 28,000 RMB.

Keyboard Originally, we were going to give this system a separate wireless keyboard, but because the keyboards that are sold separately are not of sufficient grade and are relatively inexpensive, we ended up having to equip Microsoft's Extreme Wireless Desktop Set Elite, in addition to the high price, the most extravagant part of this choice is to throw away the wireless mouse in the set (because we had already chosen Logitech's MX1000). The wireless keyboard in the set is not only sleek and stylish in design, but also comfortable to use and powerful. It features a padded keyboard tray, innovative "horizontal and vertical scroll wheel technology", one-touch multimedia keys, "customizable" keys and comfortable ergonomic design.
