Well, I am EXTREMELY mad right now! My parents, which tend to be very strict sometimes, insist that I get a computer from Best Buy so I don't have to build it, because they don't think I can. Either that, or hire her friend to help for $150 which I can't afford. And to add to that, she said I can't spend any more money on my computer (She wants me to save for a car, fill my bank, and eventually save for college) so I cannot possibly hire that guy and she won't let me put it together myself.
I am just trying to vent my frustration I guess. It seems like I had the best dream computer ever but now it turns out I won't be able to get it. I have been looking at other options earlier mentioned and they don't look to match up to mine but my parents are being unreasonable...
Well, the computer that I would be getting other then my dream one, would almost cost the same amount, but wouldn't be AM2, it would be 939, but would already be put together (besides the fans, PSU, video card, and wireless network). I really want my computer but if I can't have it then I guess this will have to do..

Sadly, this is most likely what I will be limited to. Will it run a LOT worse then my dream PC or will it just run a little bit slower? Also, is there anything really bad (or good?) about this PC? Third, on the wireless card it says "System Requirements Intel® Pentium®-class PC " does that mean it will or won't work with the above pc? Fourth, on the Anti-Virus it says "
PC Processor Type Intel® Pentium® processor or equivalent " and once again, will the above PC work with it or not? Lastly, would it be very hard to set this up with the new parts, and how hard is it to set up a wireless network?
Well, thanks for the ten pages of help, and any help you give me after this (even though it seems like the other ten pages were wasted
),
