Once i get more money or if i can fit it into my current budget i would like to purchase a new keyboard and mouse and i would like to know whats the best right now on the market that can be used mostly for gaming purposes thanks for any help.

I would go with a Core 2 duo on the processor but thats just me

Agreed!

Core 2 is the way to go - those AMD processors are old news...

 

[cyrax]

Looks alright if you're goin with AMD. I would get a different mobo though, you don't need to spend extra money on a SLI board if you aren't gonna use it. Then with the extra money, you should get a better case, that case you have there doesn't look to be of good quality.

Any Suggestions as far as a new mobo and case im open pretty much to anything i did look into a core 2 duo build but it looked pricey but idk maybe ill go back and look over it and see.

 

[Muttmitman]

Okay so i looked into a Intel Build and i wanna see what you guys think of it so far

Its surprisingly cheaper than the amd build i posted ealier i swapped out some parts but i think im definatly going to go with core 2 but im still unsure

that PSU is really weak upgrade it

and go with a 1gb stick instead of 2x512

any better trying to work this stuff into my budget alittle better so i have some extra

 

[Nagasama]

i have the same psu....
it works fine for me. i don't know what the power consumption is on the e6300 is, tho.
read tri-eclipse's post on power supplies, it will help you make a wise decision.
also, and i may be wrong here...
with ddr2 isn't it better to have 2 matching sticks? (or you won't get dual channel?) or something...?

 

[Muttmitman]

I read alittle bit of it i think i should be fine its the video card im worried about icause it said it has pretty high power consumption and i cant have anyless than a 430 watt power supply so i went with 500w so i should be safe but i definatly need to check more on consumption.
