I'm planing on doing a build based on your suggestions with pictures along the way. Though, will $500 be enough? Or should I wait for Black Friday? Thanks! The parts I currently have are:Hard DriveMonitorWindows XPQ9450 (Sell? or Keep?) (New)Help with Parts - $500 - Will post your pictures along the way
simple answer would be $500 ''can'' build the rest of it but it depends on what you want to use it for.Help with Parts - $500 - Will post your pictures along the way
Hmm, so You need a Processor, Memory, Video Card, Case, Power Supply, Hard drive, and a DVD-rom drive for a combining total of 500 dollars? I think you should save up, and be patient, wait a couple of months, get more money and get a more decent computer than one you can afford now.But I'll try to compile everything based on your budget, here it goes.Case: RaidMax Smilidon (I prefer this case because of the look, as well as the easy to build design.) $59.99 (after Mail-in Rebate) Processor: Intel Core 2 DUO E8200 at 2.66 Ghz$163.99 Motherboard Option 1: ASUS P5Q Standard P45 Chipset$129.99 Motherboard Option2: ECS P35 Chipset Motherboard P35T-A $59.99 (after Mail-in Rebate)Memory: Patriot Viper 4GB(2X2GB)PC2-1066, DDR2$89.99 (After Mail-in Rebate) Video Card: PowerColor Ati Radeon 3650 512mb GDDR3 $64.99 (After Mail-in Rebate) Optical Drive: Samsung DVD BurnerHard Drive: Seagate Barricuda 7200RPM 500GB SataII 74.99Gives you a Total of $513.94 dollars before Taxes and free shipping. If you need it to be cheaper, you can lower the Harddrive, get less memory, etc, but its not reccommended.
Thanks so far, I forgot to mention I have a Q9450 processor as well. Though, I'm not sure whether to keep it or sell it for something cheaper. Does anyone know how much cheaper prices may be on Black Friday?
