Budget build..low budget

[neiru]

AMD Phenom ii x4 925
Asrock 770 extreme 3 usb 3.0
muskin enhanced silverline 4gb (2x2gb) ddr 1333 cl9
power color 4830
silverstone st40f-es 400w
samsung F3 500gb
rosewell destroyer case

Is this decent? Budget $400-500. A budget build that can do simple applications. Play some games..not the latest games..but probably games from a few years back. Graphics that are not high demanding. Photoshop and watch videos. I also wanted to know what I should look at as a DVD drive and for a wireless connection. I'm a novice. Thank you.

I 'm a bit surprised what you have there is under $500.

This would be a better budget PSU

That gives you more options for future upgrades. While the majority of Rosewell PSUs are poor, this one is built by ATNG and considered a solid choice.

This processor could be a very big upgrade for a small amount extra

The GPU would play any game at reduced settings with a 1680x1050 res or lower. It's a good budget card for sure at that price.

This is such a noob question but would I need a 32 or 64 bit windows 7 with either CPU above. Also if I want wireless access what do I need?

You need a wireless adapter such as this.

This will give you data rates of up to 150 mbps but if you have a faster modem than that you will have you to buy a better one. But this will should suffice for gaming, and such.

you will need 64 bit windows 7

And rig looks good, and that suggested wireless card looks fine.
