I need a new gaming PC but im on a budget of 600$, It can go over to 650$, That's fine.

I don't need a monitor or graphics card (I have those 2 things already)

I was looking for the best gaming PC build for the price, But I fail at this stuff, I thought I might get some help here :)
 
Yeah, I need to buy an OS, my choice for that is windows vista 64 bit (Comes with free windows 7 upgrade from newegg)

My video card is a geforce 9500GT

I asked another forum to suggest a build on this budget and, Heres what I currently have :

i32 [dot] tinypic [dot] com/2w397yf.jpg

I like that build ^ It's what I'm getting, Unless you can make a better one? :eek:!
 
is there supposed to be an image? regardless, if youre looking for a gaming rig, a 9500gt is kinda weak. ill see what can be worked out.

the 9500GT worked just fine on my old PC (Pentium 4 3.0 GHz CPU 512mb 444Mhz 1GB 667 MHz mixed RAM) So I'm pretty sure it will work just fine for the build im trying to do =P!

I just don't want to get a crappy CPU in order to get a new gfx card. So it'll have to do =P And yes that was an SS. Here's what was on it :

The mobos only come with 1 SATA cable, Which is for the HDD, I'd need an extra one for the CD/DVD Drive which is OEM, That's why o.o
 
Ahh, Thanks for your help.

I've never used AMD so I don't know much about that, I stuck with the previous build (I removed all the cables)

Also, I changed the PSU to another one that was suggested by someone at another forum.

Instead of the Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200 2.33 GHz, I purchased the Intel Core 2 Quad 8400 2.66Ghz for 20$ more in hopes of more speed.
