Well this is going to be my first time making a computer, I would like to do it right and have a build that will last me for as long as possible.
My main question is, what to build it off of. At first I was going to buy a X2 3800 and be happy. But since this Conroe has came out I'm puzzled on what to buy. I am on a budget, I would not like to spend over a 1,000. Ideally it would be 800 or less.
I would be using this pc for normal everyday things like internet, and gaming.
Main games are CS 1.6 and Source, although I would like to be able to play some of the new stuff that will be coming out
