Here's what i came up with. Looking for tweaks. I wish i could figure out how to link a newegg shopping cart...
USE: Web browsing, microsoft office type programs, Gaming (at least 1680x1050).
Note: Antec 900 is a definite. No change allowed. PSU should be Corsair. HDD should be WD.
Case: Antec 900 - $80
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16811129021
PSU: Corsair 650hx modular - $110
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16817139012
Vid Card: PowerColor 1GB 4850 - $95
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16814131163
PSU AND VID CARD $20 CONBO DISCOUNT
MoBo: ASUS AM3 790X - $110
CPU: AMD Phenom II x4 955 3.2GHz - $160
MOBO AND CPU $20 COMBO DISCOUNT
RAM: G.Skill ripjaws 4GB ddr3 1600 - $105
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16820231277
DVD burner: Lite-on 24x dvd - $25
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16827106289
HDD: WD Blue 500GB
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16822136073
Total from NewEgg after discounts and $30 rebates = $721
Considering the mandatory Antec 900. How does this all look? I'm worried about the weak video card, but at $95 it seems pretty nice. I went with that processor because it performs as well as the e8400 in gaming, but better in every other computing task.
Thanks for your help everyone!
