I am going to recommend some parts for a friend so I can build him a new PC. I was looking for some additional input from other pc builders to get a few different ideas.
#1 Mostly gaming.
#2 Decent Hard drive
#3 Not overly outrageous case(sparkles, fans, LED's)
I was thinking of:
CPU - E7200..................................~ 130
CPU Cooler - CM Hyper TX2.............~30
MOBO- Gigabyte P35/45 DS3L..........~90
RAM - G Skill/A Data 2x2gb Kit RAM.~80
HD - WD 500GB HD.......................~100
Case - ...............................................???
Vid Card. ATI 4850............................~180
Optical Drive - Lite On DVD burner...~$30
OS???? I was thinking of 32 bit Vista, keeping it simple.
Comes out to around $640 without a case and OS and Monitor...Let me get some more Ideas! Maybe even a cheaper Vid card because he doesn't do lots of gaming. 8800GTS 512 is a possibility as well. Open to anything. Thanks
