I've built my last computer that was ages ago its a PIII 800Mhz, 512MB
SD Ram.....
Now I'm looking to buld a new one. Fresh start I would need a monitor, keyboard, mouse and speakers. I need some advice. I've been out of the loop and haven't been really researching about the newer technology. Also would my old case and power supply be able to power the new mobo?
I dunno if I should go with a 64bit or 32bit, AMD or INTEL, also I want the mobo to support usb 2.0 also.
I'd like the computer to be able play some of the new games I want a decent vid card that will allow me to drag a screen from my monitor to a TV. Probably ATI or if there something better let me know. Also TV tuner.
1gb of ddr ram.
I do a lot of downloading so I want a large HD. SATA (if its any better).
I was thinking of a Flat screen 19" also -> I saw an ad for FRY's viewsonic 19" for $300.
I want a decent sound card also where I can use a remote to control winamp or media player. I don't know if the remote works with the vid. card or sound card. Digital speakers also, with sub.
I was thinking about not going through any hassles of building and picking up one of the Dell desktops with an free upgrade flat 19" flat screen. For around $1000. If you guys can make me think other wise with going with some other options that would be great.
