Hi, Im currently builing a system for my cousin. Its mainly just going to be used for surfing the net, but gaming is also a future possiblity. So I was wondering what kind of components I should use.
I was thinking of.....
1.6A P4 or a 1.7 AXP
40GB HD
256MB RAM
Motherboard with integrated audio and video
the integrated video is mainly for cost savings right now.
using newegg.com I came up with prices between 400-500 dollars US for the complete system(not including monitor). I also threw in Video Cards on some and used integrated video on others. Im just looking for recommendations and improvements on my choices.
The case I will be using has a 300-watt PS.
Thank you in advance...
Also, with integrated video should I get and nForce and go with an AMD or should I get the P4 with an Intel i845G chipset.... I havent heard much about the 845G so Im not sure how good the graphics are.
