Need a PC built from newegg.com


If anyone of you could build me a PC fro newegg.com it would be great. I would appreciate if someone could do this for me, I am on a slighty tight budget of about 3,000. The thing is, I need two identical PC's. I would like the new 64-bit processor with a gig of RAM, and the new x800 PCIx card from ATI. I also need a bundle for a mouse and keyboard. The moniter can be cheap but a 17" is required. I know i am saying everything i would like but I just can't seem to work anything on newegg. We wouldn't mind having the gaming case they have there either, it's an alluminum case with 5 fans, it's easily found, it's 84.00. Well thats about it because i don't have much else to list. Thanks in advance.

P.S. - If you can't find a mobo that supports PCIx, a 9800 XT 256MB is fine. Thanks again.

Misc Info


you can still get a x800 in non PCIe(x is not a good modiief as there is already a seperate PCI-X standard seperate from PCIe) also no A64 mobo's have PCIe support yet. 2 identical for 3k may be hard but i'll have a go

CASE + PSU: $82 http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproduc...156-148&DEPA=1
(you can get it in different colors)

MOBO: $139
http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProduc...131-498&depa=1
(this is not in stock currently but it is the best for your needs)

CPU: $146
http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProduc...factory=BROWSE

RAM: $190
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...144-122&depa=1

HD: $80
http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProduc...factory=BROWSE

Video card: $222
http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProduc...factory=BROWSE
(not the X800 but the best besided the next gen, and half the price of 9800XT that is only 1-2% better)

CD drive: $30
http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProduc...factory=BROWSE

MONITOR: $100
http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProduc...factory=BROWSE

thats basicaly it, add in $100 a pop for XP home OEM and you have somethign that will save a bit of the 3k price(if you have a bit extra cash upgrad the CPU to a 3000+ or even 3200+) or you can add in a decent soundcard(you have onboard audio) or get a better monitor as that is not especialy good

So $1500 each. Well you seem to have a good idea of what you want. Putting it together really shouldn't be that hard. If you spend the full $1500, or even $50-100 more each you can squeeze togther a TOP end system instead of a mid-end one that will not need to be replaced in a year.

MSI K8N Neo2 Plat nf3 939 $145 (Awesome price, sale ends tommorow!)
http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproduc...130-468&DEPA=0

AMD64 3500+ 939 $424 (Not cheap, but won't need upgrade for a long while)
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...103-463&depa=1

Hitachi 80 Gig SATA 8meg $65 (Hitachi SATA's are excellent)
http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproduc...145-049&DEPA=0

2x512 Corsair XMS 3200-XL $300 (Will clock up to 500+ mhz as needed)
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...145-520&depa=1

EVGA Geforce 6800GT $399 (Or goto Compusa and buy a X800 Pro and try to mod)
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...130-203&depa=1

Case you picked out for $84
The asus cdrw $30

The $100 monitor Rbstr picked out is pretty decent. Shipping will bump it to $29. I hate ordering stuff that big online, but hard to impossible to beat the price at most local chains even with shipping.

All the above is $1576 with the $29 s/h for monitor, hopefully your in a state that doesn't pay tax online, so less than $1600 for few bucks to ship the rest. The cpu price you can actually beat if you get it somewhere else.

AMD64 3500+ retail $365 GameVE is just as good as newegg (saves $59)
http://www.gameve.com/gve/Store/Prod...CPU-AMD64-0008

This system will COMPLETELY dominate. The only upgrades I'd look into would be a nicer monitor, 19" flat panel or so since prices dropping fast. Maybe a dvd-rw if your into backing up data or movies. And better PSU, enermax, sparkle, antec, etc. Otherwise everything is pretty much tops in its category. Oh, if you need to buy your OS... guess that would add some dough but hopefully you don't.

Remember this price is pretty much only good till tommorow, when newegg ends there sale it'll jump a bit.
