4 yrs ago i bought a 1700+ and a FIC AD11 motherboard. In todays market what would be compairable to it?

as technology moves forward how can you determine replacement value with everything moving so fast.

My motherboard fried along with the processor and fan. the damage is covered under insurance and i need to know what in todays market is compairable to the mother board and processor i had.

it would be like looking at boxing in the 80's and now its UFC in the 2000's.

at the level the 1700+xp and the FIC AD11 was when i bought it 4 yrs ago what level would it be compared to in todays market.

I am looking to see what is comparable by todays standards.

2003 i bought the 1700+ 1.4GHZ and the FIC AD11XP Motherboard which i believe was around middle ground back then.

what is comparable as a replacement in todays market??

Maybe some amd 64 3000+ with 512 ram. An asrock or gigabyte motherboard.

Am2 socket, a little more money in and a 3600+ dual core for nowadays multi tasking.

This way you have to change ram to ddr2. So if they are giving you a middle range like back then make sure you get at least that.


If they are not just replacing parts.



Good luck and happy warranty extension time!! Smile

that was what i was thinking too, but really wasnt sure with the pace the industry is moving these days.

renters insurance with computer coverage never thought i would use it until my motherboard caught on fire without warning.
