I have not built a system in a couple of years.. so heres what I came up with tell me what you think. No OMG Go Intel moron comments please unless you can prove it can be done for basically the same price.
AMD X2-4400+ Brisbane (65nm) $115.00
Asus M2N-E motherboard (other suggestions are welcome- don't care about SLI) $99.99
A.Data 2GB DDR2-800 RAM
(might get 2 sets for 4GB- its $100 cheaper than 2x 2GB set)
Existing 250GB hard drive and DVD burner
Video Card: someone help me decide is the 640 worth it over the 320? Right now my monitor is 1280x1024 might move to a 24" 1920x1200..
Option 1) EVGA 8800GTS 320MB- $279.00
Option 2) eVGA 8800GTS 640MB $389.99
Already have an Antec P160 case and Antec Smartpower 500W PSU.
PSU Output: +3.3V@32A, +5V@35A, +12V1@17A, +12V2@19A, -12V@0.3A, +5VSB@2A
Will this PSU be okay for an 8800GTS?
Thanks for the help!
