My friend is finally deciding to get rid of his Dell 4400 and build his own rig! Now he wanted me to find him a low budget computer. I came up w/ parts pretty similar to mine. He already bought some weird "professional ATX case" Here is what I got for him:
Gigabyte GA-K8NSC
AMD Athlon 64 3000+ 939 Venice
MSI 6600GT AGP 8x 128MB
SONY IDE DVD/CD ROM Drive
1GB Corsair ValueSelect PC3200 RAM
Now as far as HD's go, he upgraded his HD earlier to a 80GB Maxtor that he wants to switch over. Now I am asking if this build will fit and if everything looks fine.
I have another question though. He has Windows XP Home on the HD, and of course it is the Dell copy. But he still has the re-install disk, and it is the full install, not partial. Could I just switch the HD over for him and not have to worry about buying a new copy? I have heard that it usually works as long as you have the full install on it.
Thanks!
