ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: I basically need case, mobo, cpu, ram, hd. I have done some research, and I cant decide if I should go
with AMD 720, 940, or 955. Not sure about ram, if I should go with ddr2 or ddr3. I have about
$600-$650 to spend If I can fit a new video card in this budget that is fine, but I dont mind if I have to
stick with my 8800gt for about 6 months to save for a new one. Ideally this is for gaming. I currently
have a gateway pentium D 820 with 3 gig of of ram - pc2-5300 (33 mghz). Just looking for a big upgrade
from this 5 year old machine.
