Default Re: Building a new comp. Help?

I made the shopping cart and copy and pasted to get the links to make this easier for others.

First: Don't forget Windows and DVD-ROM, if needed.

Second: I recommend spending another $15-$30 and upgrading the video card. That one is way obsolete. This one for example: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814161315 If you don't like ATI, this is a good chart that shows the best video cards for the money. http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/...70,2935-7.html Use it to find an equivalent GeForce.

Third: That CPU is overkill and a very easy way to save $100-$150. Check this similar chart for best CPUs for the money. I recommend i5 to save some bucks.
