limited to $1000USD
I need this pc to last a wile. I mean a wile.
This pc will only be used for light gaming, but the chances are it will not be used for gaming at all.
Here is what i have so far, please let me know what you guys think and if there is any better hardwares that i can get for the about the same amount of money.
For this build the OS is unnecessary and i already have a optical drive.
CPU - Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 Conroe 2.4GHz $235
RAM - CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 $180 with 50 MIR
Mobo - Newegg.com - ASUS P5N-E SLI LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 650i SLI ATX Intel Motherboard $128.99
GPU - GIGABYTE GV-NX76G256D-RH GeForce 7600GS 256MB 128-bit GDDR2 PCI Express x16 $96.99
Hardrive - Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 (Perpendicular Recording) ST3400620AS 400GB $120
Case - X-Purity $59.99
PSU - Antec NeoHE 500 ATX12V 500W Power Supply$99.99
Card Reader - Rosewill RCR-FD200 All-in-one USB 2.0 Black 3.5 $20.99
About $942USD so far with out the Video card. $892 with the MIR
Is it worth it to set up a Raid drive seeing how the mobo has the Raid controller? What are the advantages and disadvantages of raid beside i need two hard drive and cost me more?
I looked over all the hardwares and think all of them are compatible. Can someone please verify it for me please?
I would also like to sleeve the cables, where can i get cheap and good sleeving supplies? its the best if it is from Newegg. Please post the link? Is there any good cable sleeving guide somewere?
Thanks alot
