Well I'm a brand new member here and have been looking through all the threads about budget builds. You guys have some great knowledge and expertise, so I'm asking for help.
Requirements: Something that will play current games at decent rates (Monitor will be 19"+). Quick enough to run some older games with 2 or three of them open at the same time (very old game like 2000)
Also thinking of over-clocking this system to achieve some better performance. So if you keep that in mind too for the chip + cooler
Budget: $700
Needed Items (other than the norm): Sound card and maybe a card reader
Things not needed: Any type of software (Windows XP Vista etc) but I would love suggestions on which system to install on my rig and I don't need a monitor/keyboard/mouse.
