The Systemax Venture Intel Core2 Duo based computer provides a balance of power and value with relatively new technology it manages to keep pace with latest developments while steering clear of ridiculous pricing.
I am always aware of how much new stuff costs with the rapid displace in prices within a few months of the launch of something new I can always wait. Based on an Intel Core2 Duo processor and with an Intel 945GC + ICH7R chipset the combination works well and give a nice overall set of features. They are some of them:
The bits and pieces of this barebones desktop computer look tempting but lack a little in the up-to-date department. Let’s have a look.
The processor is one of the original slower Core2 processors with only a 800MHz FSB it lacks the speed of the newer 6000 series processors that support 1066/1333MHz FSB. This is not bad in itself but does mean that any upgrade in processor will mean an upgrade to the motherboard.
The motherboard based on the Intel 945GC Northbridge chipset is really designed for the older Pentium 4. It only offers up to a 800MHz FSB and will hold back many of the faster chips available today. The other features of the motherboard are quite admirable for a low to mid-range motherboard.
There is a PCIe x16 slot available for a graphics card good. There are some PCI slots for older cards good. The SATA ports support RAID so performance can be increased or data safety can be increased both good. The usual array of features are built-in. A communicate port a few USB ports and one of the fancy little extras is a panel for memory cards on the front of the box itself.
For the price it does meet some needs. It is great for a computer for alter now but is a little limiting with future upgrade potential but ordain remain quite viable for a few years still.[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
