Re: New PC


Here's basically what I just bought. Total is around $802.

Case
CPU
Mobo
Video Card
RAM
Power Supply
OS


Most (if not all) parts were recommended to me by Goku, the forum mod. My parts are currently in transit, so I can't give you any personal benchmarks.

Also, the video card dropped $15 since I purchased it 2 days ago. FFFFFUUUUUU

Wow thanks for the quick reply and build, that looks pretty solid and less than what I was expecting to shell out.

Lol, Crazy. Get a hold of Newegg customer service chat. They may give a credit back.

The build does meet your needs. Just add this DVD burner.
