My knowledge on computers is limited as far as hardware goes so take that into consideration and feel free to suggest something different.
This is basically what I'm looking for and will need. I'm looking to spend at the most $1,500. If I can get everything for less, even better. The monitor, case, keyboard, and mouse have to be black. I'd like 2 GB of RAM and a HD around 300 GB. I need a CD/DVD Burner. I don't play games but would like a decent video card just in case. As long as the games will run even at low, and it will last 2-3 years. I mostly just listen to music but am not sure how much of an improvement you get with a sound card. Here is what I have so far.
Antec LifeStyle SONATA II Piano Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 450Watt
eVGA Geforce 7600GT 256MB 128-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card
Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 Conroe 2.13GHz 2M shared L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor
OCZ Platinum Revision 2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel
Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 320GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive
SAMSUNG 204BW Black 20" 6ms DVI Widescreen LCD Monitor
I'm pretty sure on the CD/DVD Burner, Mouse, and Keyboard I've picked. I have no idea what motherboard to get.
