Hello,
I had a build ready to go... and then the Sandybridge went out of stock due to malfunction errors.
So here is the start of a new build. This is a computer I need within the next week. I will be keeping my video card (Geforce 8800 gts) until I actually start gaming in about 6 months. This is for general use/multitasking, watching blue rays, etc. I want this computer to last and the budget is around ~500-600 not including monitor.
I have no idea about the motherboard!
