Around $800 ?

[Jman888]

Does anybody know what a good Build for me that would cost around $800 would be? It would be the first time i would build a Pc so i would like it to be easy but still pretty Fast.
Im thinking a Core2 and 2Gigs of Ram to start but whats a good Mobo, Case, PSU, Ect?

Not a chance for that, I just had K M A N build me one up with that. That cost around 1300$.

Would it be used for gaming, do you need a monitor, keyboard etc?

 

[Jman888]

No monitor or anything now.
Well how close could i get?
Ive thought.
-E6400 - 213
-2x 1Gig Kingston
-XFS 7900 GS

so yeah i'll probally go over.
I dont need a big HD or anything but what should i get?

Antec LifeStyle SONATA II -99$
ASUS P5B LGA 775 Intel P965 Express ATX Intel Motherboard -$150
XFX Geoforce 7900GS
E6400
2GB Kingston
Sony Floppy
Do you really need floppy? I heard Xp needs it for SATA...
320Gig Seagate Seagate is awesome
Sony 16X Dvd
960$
Pretty close. Not to bad really.

 

[Raze664]

Floppy isn't needed, though you would need a CD-Drive to install windows.

 

[Raze664]

Looks compatible, though I would get some help from someone more experienced at computers before you build it.

I say drop the Sonata, get a Centurion 5 and a FSP 400w. or 450w and make the HDD a 250gb or a 160gb. No floppy.. get an e6300 and DS3, and with that money get a better aftermarket heatsink or better RAM... or whatever, just I say if you're limited to 800 dollars, get the DS3 over the P5B..
