I'm debating building myself a new computer, my Athlon runs so loud with all the cooling fans, I never turn it on.
I'm on a tight budget here is what I'm thinking and what I want.
Abit Motherboard (I just love them) would like PCI-X for easy future upgrades.
1 GB Dual Channel DDR or DDR2
Intel Celly D Socket T
Inexpensive Dual Format Dual layer DVD Burner
Inexpensive 300W ish Power Supply
Good Sound Card (NOT onboard)
Mediocre Video Card Perferably ATi (I do very little gaming)
I have:
Silver Aluminium ATX Case with Plexi Window and Front USB/Audio Capabilities.
3.5 Floppy Alreading installed in above Case
40GB PATA Maxtor HD (Will get me going, would upgrade to SATA later)
