basics there any good need to know

What are you asking? Try speaking english! Not Europe English either, American English

get bigger drive. other than that i'd say you got an ok puter. for dorm room?

American English isn't a language.

Thats a well matched system for a good price.

yeah. well spent money. but screw the speakers and plug in your stereo set instead.

Ya, dump the crap speakers.

Whoa!! NO PCCHIPS! STAY AWAY FROM PCCHIPS! Cheap crap is what you'll get unless that is what you were going for.

I agree 100%. PCChips blows huge, huge moosey. My cousin had the m810 and it would never run his xp2000+ at anything over 100fsb.

Change that and you got a good system.

I would tend to go along with you vegetto, PCChips is like "Joe's mobo". POS most of the time.

tell that to my M715 that been woring for 6 years

Where did I say anything about it "not working?" I have a 486 motherboard from them, sure it still runs. I also have a P3 motherboard from them, sure it still runs. BUT THEY ARE BOTH CRAP. The P3 motherboard gets 12% bandwidth efficiency (100meg/sec RAM bandwidth!). You call that working? Their BIOS updates are crap, and the boards barely support any of today's standards. Stick with ASUS/Abit/MSI.

I also hear they blow huge moose member.

ECS makes the PC Chips mobos. I had a K7S5A for a day and a half before I returned it because it wouldn't run properly. I would also recommend a different mobo manufacturer's product, such as Shuttle or FIC for an inexpensive alternative to PC Chips.

I always wondered why the ECS boards were so cheap. Now I know

I'll stick to Asus and Giga-Byte

ecs does not make pcchips mobo's.. pcchips is a seporite comany.. pcchips make albatron though

Sorry to say, but you are wrong MB.
