Alrighty... I'm looking to build a budget computer of around $1000 usd or less, but am having a little trouble with selecting some parts. I want to get a decent monitor, I want to spend less tahn $200, and I don't know the difference between widescreen and full screen? (won't it distort my images? not using Vista) First off, I mainly use the computer for school and minor tasks, but would like to be able to play a nice computer game every now and then, like an mmorpg (not extremely graphic intensive). So yea, I've come to this so far..
CPU - Intel duel core e2160 (OC to 3.0 or so) - $83
GPU - XFX 8600GT XXX - $100
MOBO - Gigabyte P35-DS3L - $95
RAM - G.Skill 2GB (2x1) DDR 800 - $55
Case - Coolermaster Centurion 5 - $40
PSU - Rosewill RP550-2 (550watt) - $52
HD - Western Digital 160GB 7200rpm - $50
OS - XP MCE 2005 SP2B - $115
Btw, I'm trying to find the best budget graphics out there, I want to spend between $100-125
and how about my CPU? I would overclock it to atleast 3.0, but would a e6750 for $85 more, be a better choice?
I'm seeing a few cheap 22inch monitors for black friday, should I go for those? Westinghouse, Envision for about $160? or should I opt for the $200 22inch Samsung 2220bw?
