Hi i'm building a new PC for my brother and only have about $900 AU to spend, however i do not need a keyboard, mouse, monitopr etc, i just want a tower. I also do not need a graphics card as i already have one.
Its pretty much a gaming pc however its obviously limited by the budget, so I have chosen a system where it can be upgraded by adding more ram later etc.
Here are the specifications and i would greatly appreciate any advice on where i can get better prices (in Australia) or wether there are better parts without having to increase the budjet.
MB: ABIT KN8 Ultra $135
Ram: 512mb PC-3200 Corsair VALUE SELECT $80.7
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3500+, Venice Core $286.49
DVD: Samsung Combo Drive 16x DVD, 52x24x52 CD-RW $60
HD: Samsung 80G SATA II $84.6
Foxconn TLA-481 ATX Midi Tower Case, Black $64
Windows XP: $131
(Probably a build cost of $50, just to make sure i don't screw it up)
These prices are from www.jantechcomputers.com.au
Thankyou for any advive at all.
Will
