Hello, I'm sure you are all thinking "Not another PC build thread!" So I will get right to the point.
I want a performance PC in the $900-$1200(USD) range.
My planed specs, as of this moment are as follows:
CPU:$190 AMD Athlon 64 3200+
MOBO:$80.00 MSI K8N Neo4-F NVIDIA Socket 939 ATX
Memeory:$40 Ultra 1024MB PC3200 DDR 400MHz CL3 Memory
Vid. Card:$150 Geforce 6800(gt?)
PSU:$60 Ultra / X-Connect / 500-Watt / ATX / Dual 80mm Fan
Sound:$20 Creative Labs SoundBlaster Live 24-Bit PCI Sound
Monitor:$200 LCD something or other, I really don't care.
Case:$175 Thermaltake Silver Armor Aluminum Full-Tower AXT or black
Hard Drive:$100 Seagate / 300GB / 7200 / 8MB / SATA-150 / OEM / Hard Drive
CD:Already have one that should do.
Total: $1015
This rig will be used about 80% gaming, 20% random other stuff.
If you see anywhere that I am unwitingly cheaping out or going more expensive then I need to (Or just buying a POS part) I would appriciate the advice.
I would particularly like advice on the case and PSU.
