I did not put a modem on it, u said u were gettting a wireless high speed connection. Some else please check over the config to make sure i didnt miss anything, its very possible i did. When its ready, enter it into Monarch's config for the desktop at this link:

ok thanks dhw200

i am going to be getting wirless bu tnot for awhile

i still have to have dial up , so i can add a modem

which one , if there is options to choose from ?



thanks agian , it will probably be either over the weekend, or on this coming su nday , before i thoroughly look through this and purchase it.
im busy for next day and a half

thanks again dhw200

p.s i noted that you didnt have a sound card picked

if i dont have a sound card this means I will have no sound correct.

i want to be able to use my 2 channel speakers.

 

[dhw200]

naw, the mobo has an integrated sound chip, as do practiclly all mobos. Not as good as a real soundcard, but unless ur serious about your sound, you dont need to get a card. i get by fine with the integrated chip on my MSI K8N Neo4-F nForce4 mobo

as for modems, they look the same to me, so get the cheaper one

Thats pretty expensive for a computer like that.

 

[dhw200]

its not as cheap as building yourself, but its not bad. Monarch's systems are QUALITY though. Great stuff

 

[kirtis_mcleskey]

i totally trust dhw200, but can a couple of you double check it to make sure its a . ok to order it ?


im excited about finally having a computer, that works.

anyways, does this total cost include the builder fee,

 

[dhw200]

since it says "total", im assuming its the total cost.
