Hi I'm UniBroke.. My name basically explains my situation. I just graduated from High School.. and am going to uni. So basically I'm broke as ****..
I like playing MMORPGs all the time, and thats basically it. I have a PS3 for all my other gaming needs.
Highest spec game I'll play would be Age of Conan, and Sims 3, and that's not saying much.
So... I was wondering if someone could help me build a new computer. The computer I'm using now is horrible, but has lasted me and satisfied all my gaming needs:
Computer:
Operating System Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
OS Service Pack Service Pack 3
DirectX 4.09.00.0904 (DirectX 9.0c)
Motherboard:
CPU Type Intel Pentium 4, 2666 MHz (20 x 133)
Motherboard Name IBM 8187NUA
Motherboard Chipset Intel Springdale-G i865G
System Memory 512 MB (PC2700 DDR SDRAM)
BIOS Type Phoenix (01/29/04)
Communication Port Communications Port (COM1)
Communication Port ECP Printer Port (LPT1)
Display:
Video Adapter NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 (Microsoft Corporation) (64 M
3D Accelerator nVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440
Monitor SyncMaster 2043NW/2043NWX [NoDB] (HVKQ800425)
Multimedia:
Audio Adapter Intel 82801EB ICH5 - AC'97 Audio Controller [A-2/A-3]
Storage:
IDE Controller Intel(R) 82801EB Ultra ATA Storage Controllers - 24DB
SCSI/RAID Controller A3ZVAS5X IDE Controller
Floppy Drive Floppy disk drive
Disk Drive WDC WD400BB-23DEA0 (37 GB, IDE)
Optical Drive JLMS XJ-HD166S (16x/48x DVD-ROM)
Optical Drive KVS WHMFS1UZ49QN SCSI CdRom Device
SMART Hard Disks Status OK
My budget is like $400 Canadian. University really torn holes in my pocket.. any cheaper then $400 is great because I'll have money for food, and my GF. Haha.
I'm no extreme gamer obviously.. but I really enjoy MMOs like Mabinogi, and Dungeon and Fighter.
If the computer can be better then:
Newegg.com - Gateway DX4800-05e Pentium dual-core E5200(2.50GHz) 6GB DDR2 640GB NVIDIA GeForce 9200 Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit - Desktop PCs
and cheaper.
I'd be very happy.
I was told to come here.. kind of shy because of my poor request.
I know I can handle putting together the computer.. if I have struggles - I have many friends that can help me.
I've helped do it couple times before.
$400CAD is basically my budget.
Thank you very much if you can help me.
