My current system isn't really working for new games(30fps max in Source) so I'm going to build a new system and I'm looking for some people to double check what I came up with.
I probably would be playing mostly halflife and source engine games on it now but I want it to be able to run games like supreme commander, quakewars, and stalker at least decently.
This isn't exactly urgent so if waiting another month or so would get me a lot more bang for the buck I would be up for that.
Conroe E6300 / $180
GIGABYTE GA-965P-S3 Socket T (LGA 775) Intel P965 Express ATX Intel Motherboard / $115
CORSAIR ValueSelect 1GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) System Memory / $110
I might buy another 1gb stick later.
XTASY RADEON X800 GT 256 MB PCI-E / $70
Western Digital Caviar SE WD800JD 80GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive / $45
Ultra ULT31846 X-Finity 500 Watt Power Supply (Blue) Retail / $60
Rosewill R604-P BK 120mm Fan ATX Mid Tower Computer Case / $30
Total: $610(Mostly at newegg, will shop around when I actually buy)
Note: I know its missing a disk-drive.
Thanks.
