I am thinking of getting a Thunder K8WE (S2895) dual opteron Motherboard, with two 2.0GHZ opteron dual core CPU's will i be able to run Windows XP 32 bit on that? and will it help me during gaming? will i be able to play older single CPU based games like halo, and battle field 1942? I'm mostly getting this to say i have 2 CPU's and 4 cores... but i would love a fairly cheap blazing fast computer, as my laptops fine, but its only a mobile sempron 3000 maxed out at 2 GB ram..
also reccommend a good SATA hard drive? is it different than using an ATA (IDE)133 HD?
Hi!
Of course it can run Windows Xp 32 bit. The computer specification is much higher for the operating system to run and there can be no problem for it.
About the hard drive, it depends upon it RPM (Rotate Per Minute) and it's data access time. I think SATA drive is good to use.
Hope it helps..
Thank you for reaching Fixya.
