Sempron 64 2600 w/ TUL Radeon 200 Board $99

Sempron 64 2600+ w/ TUL Board Option

Combo special from Newegg. Looks like a good candidate for an HTPC build if you want to use a regular size ATX board. Has 8 channel audio, PCIe 16x, etc...

This deal is nice! Bought two (on separate orders, of course) to build the kids some Xmas gifts . Good one OP!

An ok deal for those without a Fry's.

Does this Sempron 64 have Cool 'n Quiet (do all Sempron 64's?).

No and yes. Some version seem to have it.

Hi, Im new to this. Can someone recommend a good case or at least what size i need? Also what should i do about a video card?

I paired it with this case/power supply and a Sapphire Radeon X550 PCIE video card.

Welcome to AT and Hot Deals.

What you want depends on what you want your machine to do. For video, that depends on whether you need a heavy gaming card or just good graphic displays and maybe the ability to watch videos. For cases, it depends on various features, including how much power you need (in watts), the size case you need, including how many bays for drives, and other features.

Check the relevant hardware forums for makes and models. Then, when you have a better idea of what you want, come back to this forum to find some deals on those parts.

can anyone tell me if that tul board has voltage options for cpu/memory and front side bus (HTT) settings? this would be a killer deal if the board can do some overclocking. i am not looking for crazy adjustibility... only some moderate overclockability. anyone bought this combo can tell me, or anyone who owns the board already? i checked on the manual on their website, and the overclocking options looked unpromising, however, some gentlemen on another forum with the board claimed there were cpu and memory voltage adjustments not in the manual... thanks!

Awesome case, very easy to assemble even for a beginner.

 

[jackwhitter]

jeeper,
that is the only info i saw on bios options. i was hoping an anandtech individual could give further insight into the bios. thanks for the help!

The TUL is OOS now. There's still an ATX Biostar combo available for about $10 more.

 

[mikeford]

Eh, I waits for the Frys deal, nobody beats them on ECS combos.

 

[MustangSVT]

well i got a 3100+ ecs combo. so I couldnt get this.. oh well i hope its 64 bit .

 

[evilman]

Ok, sorta off topic... but it's relavent to us who got this combo.

Since the bios has NO overclocking options, and I want to overclock this combo, what is everyone else doing?
I saw on another forum the suggestion to use Crystal CPUid to overclock but I can't figure out how to use the software.
Any ideas?

Watched this Biostar mobo deal for a week, and had to bite. Nice cheap (yet good) combo.
