Ok, I need to make a decision. Originally I was going to buy a PC from the store, it was:

Pentium 4 (I Think) 2.4 ghz
512 MB RAM
40 GB Hard Drive
S3 ProSavage Integrated Graphics Card
CDRW + DVD-R

and that's all I can remember. It costs about 650 CAD. The problem is, the graphcis card in it sucks ass. I would have to spend 150 - 200 just to a card that can run FFXI properly, which would bring the price to around 800 - 850.

Now, my other option is to get a custom built PC, it includes:

AMD XP 2400+ Processor
256MB PC2700 DDR
40 GB Hard Drive
CDRW (52x24x52)
Nvidia GeForce MX440 64M DDR AGP 8x
Integrated 10/100 network card

I get that for 865 CAD. It has a much better grpahics card, and is only a little more expensive than what I would have to pay if I wanted to buy that other PC plus a decent graphics card.

So.. my question is... what is the better deal? Should I go with the Custom built PC? Or get the other one and just buy a graphics card. Any help is appreciated.
