Ok guys its finally time to upgrade the family comp so what parts would you reccomend? The price limit is around 700 and i'd like to add 2 gigs of gskill and 64 bit vista :) (i would be swapping those into my rig) so any ideas?
 
lol right now its a crappy p4 1.6 32meg gphs sd ram 512 i think 80 gig hd xp home... used for basic web browsing/ financial stuff, maybe some music. Doesnt have to be cutting edge.
 
is the pre built or newegg special :) i wouldnt mind putting it together myself can you give me links?
 
You could build a new system for $400, that would easily handle all those tasks.


Like:
Case - Cooler Master Centurion 5 or Your choice...
Motherboard - Biostar TForce TF7025 w/onboard GeForce 7025
CPU - AMD Athlon 64 X2 3600+ Brisbane
RAM - 2 x 1GB G. Skill DDR2-800 NQs
Power supply - FSP Group (Fortron Source) 400W
Hard drive - WD 160GB
Optical drive - Sony NEC Optiarc DVD Burner

u can also get a coolermaster elite 330, looks awesome for 30$ :) call me cheap but pinch every penny :) and u just saved 3,000 of them :)
