i loved shopping to build my first computer.. lol
feels good to say "i built my computer" lol

i just sucked at wire management because i rushed it all..

anyways.. i wanted to start building computers and selling them. but i dont know how.
lol i know, my friends were like WOW UR A GENIUS, when i showed em my built comp
 
well guys im gonna be building a pc for someone with a 1k budget, but i dont wnna spend that much for her cos she doesnt need it...all she needs it for is veiwing pics, work and interenet.

the thread i posted came upto 900, and today i found an hp at walmart with far better specs than the one i configured and bigger monitor.

BUT, i do know the psu,ram,mobo and gpu will be crap.
im just confused whther to get her a prebuilt one so i dont have to hassle much cos shes kinda old and needs something simple...
im supper confused.

It sucks, having to build a pc but limit yourself to it not being for gaming, i would just get a basic system, you could even do an amd build and spend less and get some more profit.

Warranty and tech support doesnt mean a whole lot when its all from people you cant understand...
 
i would get an 8400gs if its just for pic viewing

well i have an ati x600 on my pc upstairs, so ill take the 7600gt and give her my ati card.

and ill buying the 7600gt for my gf since she might game and its a good discount when combined with the psu...thats 7600gt comes up to lik $40 after all discounts including rebates.
