Its been awhile since I last built a pc. The last time i built a pc the Radeon 9800 pro was the best you could get in graphics tech, so I need some serious help with all this new technology. My budget is around 900 dollars but im going to need pretty much every thing moniter, key board, etc. I want to be able to play some games doesnt have to be ultra high settings. I mainly play Nascar racing 2003 Just playable. Ordering the parts from new egg is probably going to be the cheapst bet unless you know of some where else. The only real part I have look into is processors. I was thinking that the Intel Core 2 Duo Processor E8500 would be the best choice for what I need.
Heres what i have come up with:
