Total Cost of this Build: $325, if you guys can tell me how to lower that down to like $150 - $200 but still get a good computer, please do .
Hi guys, I'm putting together computer parts because christmas is only a couple of months away, and I'm going to ask for this for Christmas ;P. The only problem is, I don't think my parents will want to run out and gather all the correct parts for me, so this might not happen, I might just have to get them individually. OR: Just ask for a Lenovo Desktop .
Anyways, down to what I'm thinking of getting: My budget is near $300 Probably closer to $150-$200, so the items I've chosen are mid-grade and will do good for me until I can afford to upgrade later on.
Here is what I've got so far: By the way; Please let me know if some things aren't compatible, such as the motherboard and CPU. Thanks!
x1 Seagate Barracuda SATA Hard drive; $70
Hard Drive
x1 ASUS ATX Intel Motherboard; $80
Motherboard
x1 Intel Pentium Sandy Bridge 2.6GHz Processor; $65
Processor
x1 Kingston HyperX 4GiB Memory Stick; $20
Memory
(Keep in mind that I will be upgrading this to 8GiB later on)
x1 EVGA nVidia GT 520 Graphics Card; $50
Graphics Card
(How do I hook up a VGA LCD to the back of this?)
x1 Apex Case + PSU; $40
Case + Power Supply
Guys the Case is not too fancy, but I will upgrade it later, but will the PSU included in this work with my motherboard?
Thanks for looking :>
