Help with a low budget build

you wont find a monitor for $5...unless you invest it in a lockpick

I've seen used CRTs go for that on craigslist.

Lol they're probably sold by uber n00bs who dont realize that their crt is worth alot more. Anything that noobish amuses me, like commercials that say we'll install drivers and printers 24/7!

i once overheard a salesmen telling a customer that her new USB controller card would speed up her system

Also, I would definately go for the 4000+ CPU over the 3600+, because if you are unlucky with the chip, and get a bad overclcoker, then you are at least guaranteed a bit extra speed, for a small price increase.

Out of interest, what shop was that in?

Wait, what? How much did this card cost?
