 |
|
I want to buy a high-quality, fast (3-4ghz) CPU, motherboard and tower. I have the memory, DVD drive and other components. Where can I purchase computer parts? It's for audio recording.
I'm in Busan.
Thx. |

3-4GHZ? That seems rather excessive. Nowadays, a processor's performance isn't tied directly to clock speed.
A 2.0GHZ Core 2 Duo will beat the pants off of a 4GHZ Pentium 4.
It would help if you could give a price range. Tell us how much you are willing to spend and we can pick the right stuff for you. |

Fair question but I don't know prices well enough to say. What would a 2GHZ core duo motherboard with a tower cost?

| I'd say roughly $400 depending on the feature set of the motherboard and the type of tower you want to get. |

This is a buy and sell forum and we're talking about buying and selling.

I'm in Gimpo. I don't have what you are looking for. Try danawa.com or gmarket. |

Thanks.
I'm familiar with those sites. But I am not confident that I can put all the components together myself. What should I look for on Gmarket?
