I would like to build a PC which I have not done in quite sometime(I found the laptop more practical for school).
APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: End of April
BUDGET RANGE: < $750 before any rebates or taxes
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: School work, Internet, and would like to do some light gaming(mainly older titles)
PARTS NOT REQUIRED: Operating System or anything outside the tower
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: Any legit website
PARTS PREFERENCES: Western Digital for hard drives(anyone really except Seagate), Intel for processor
OVERCLOCKING: Not likely SLI OR CROSSFIRE: Doubt it fits in the small budget
MONITOR RESOLUTION: 1680x1050
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS:
-Would like it to not be very loud if possible although anything not ridiculously noisy will do
-I would either like to install Windows XP Pro or Windows 7 64 bit Pro on this machine
Really need advice/tips as I have not been keeping up with tech news or built any machines lately.
Looking for the best you can build on this budget really. I know it is not extravagant but I am hoping it gets me something decent and perhaps upgradeable to last me a while.
