I only have a few parts that I have settled on, and need some help
with the other components. I already have the HDD's, optical drives,
and peripherals. So...here's what I do know :
PSU/Case: Antec Sonata III (is 500W enough?)
CPU: E4500 (The other choice was E6600 but I am not an intense PC user
and can upgrade later)
GPU: 8800GT (Which model should I choose XFX, EVGA, etc.....)
Mobo: I simply have no idea, I want this build to be economical but I
don't want to be pulling my hair out in month....I would like to spend
no more than $130
TigerDirect.com has a bundle with the Intel DG31PR Motherboard and
E4500, good or bad?
I like intel boards. Not for overclockers, but good stable stuff.
I'd buy the mb cpu and ram from the same place, I prefer mwave.com
because for $10 they'll assemble and test the lot. Nothing more
disappointing than putting the thing together and finding out it won't
work and having to play detective. Fine if you're building a hundred
of them, sucks royally if you're doing a one-off.
