Ok gents (and ladies if there are any here! HA)..
I'm interested in building a system that will allow me to play games for the next year plus without too many problems. I have a limited limited budget as we are soon to be married and remodeling a house..
Anyway - I need another workstation and want to turn my current 1.5ghz p4 with a gef2ultra and 384 ram into a 2003 server for testing.
For the past year or so I have been 'left out' of many of the games out there, and probably a bit longer for the real cool stuff...but still play a few that don't require much so I'm ok with that..
My question is, is it possible to build a nice system for around 5 bills via newegg, pricewatch, ebay or...?
I will probably build a 'dream' system sometime around xmas or possibly next summer, I just don't want to sync that cash into it all right now...
Not to mention, things have definetely gotten MUCH more complicated from when I built my last system back in 2001, and I thought it was information heavy back in 2001 from my previous 3 year old p2-300 system! LOL
Anyway - if you can even provide links to sites selling the goods, I would appreciate it...
THANKS MUCH (FYI NO monitor)
