Hello;
I want to build my own computer. I do a lot of multi-tasking (usually 10-12 windows/programs open at a time). I do not do a lot of gaming, so a do not need a very high end graphics card. Although i would like to be able to run Beryl/Compiz on a linux distro. I do some video editing. Also i store a lot of files on my computer. I'm thinking around 320-500gb. For RAM i guess 2gb would be good?
I'm really only stuck on the processor, mobo, and graphics card (integrated would be fine).
My budget is around 400-500 dollars. Here is my ideas so far
or
Any ideas, suggestions or add ons to what i have would be great. Heck, brand new ideas would be great too!
