hi guys I am creating a computer for my relative
and
she asked me if its possible to build two computer and a 20 inch monitor..yea
Just wondering if you guys can give me a layout I just cannot figure it out

So one of the computer can be absolutely crappy ( For my Aunt )

But her son ( my counsin ) wants a gaming computer ( yea I know! )

Fortunately they have a two spare cd rom, one being dvd and the other just old cd rom driver; however they are content with it..

This is like mission impossible for me please help me

is that $650 for both or each

 

[dannyjjang]

both...yea..It's really hard....haha....

I mean for the first comp can be hella crappy...

as long as its better than pentium 4 ( Which is her current one! and I believe she has a spare 512mb ram that might save some money )

 

[mindless728]

thats 1 20" monitor (not one each right)?

you realize that between one 20" monitor and 2 copies of windows you are down to #350 for both computers

 

[dannyjjang]

no I have two copies of window from previous computers

And a cheap 20 inch monitor from newegg was about $120

yes just one 20 inch monitor

250 each, so 500.

Not 20 inch, but 19 inch, so close. 110

610 so far. This card for the gamer system, 70 bucks but a 10 dollar mail in rebate.

Total of 680.

Now you could take this card at 60, but gives you a 20 dollar mail in rebate, but unsure about the quality of the power supplies. Your call.
