I have a cheap case but i'm willing to spend around 600-650$ for a new pc
Don't say craigslist because they are mostly over priced and i have checked my area.

4.0GB Ram (3.75 usable)
64 Bit Operating System
DDR2 Asus Motherboard
AMD Athlon(tm) II x4 640 Processor 3.00 GHz
Generic PnP Acer Monitor
NVIDIA GeForce 7025 Graphics Card
200 Power supply

Looking to do major upgrades if possible
(The monitor will be seperate when i get paid next week)
Would like to order these today and tomorrow
I wanna build from the ground up with a case i have.


What i want it to be able to do:
Run - Skype
Run Game Capture Software ( Elgato ) in 60 frames 1080p
Videos
Diablo 2
Counter strike
Etc the basic gaming computer

With $650 you can build a much better pc than that.
Forget about upgrading, just build a brand new.

Budget:
Maximum you will spend? - 600-650
Will you complete mail in rebates? -
If so, may we go over-budget if rebates bring you within budget? -
Do you need Windows Operation System within budget? -
Need a Monitor? / Mouse? / Keyboard within budget? - monitor at later date? kb/mouse?

Basic Info:
Specific Uses (Programs, game titles etc.) -Run - Skype
Run Game Capture Software ( Elgato ) in 60 frames 1080p
Videos
Diablo 2
Counter strike
Country? -
Will you travel to NCIX (canada) or Microcenter (USA) for parts? (Null if unsure) -

How much hard drive space do you want or need? -
Will you use wireless or wired internet? -
Will you overclock CPU and/or GPU? -
Any special requests or useful things to tell us? (Specific case, need lots of storage, audio etc.) -

Style (optional)
Do you prefer any specific colors for the build/computer case? -
Do you prefer a window on your case? -
*(Please note how picky you will be with colors. Sometimes it's just not feasible to get some colors on certain parts)*



e/ if you fill the above form out and can link the case you currently have/want to use that would be helpful for size/length requirements of the motherboard, gpu thx

also.. will you use your old hdd's, optical (cd/dvd)? or will you need new? if so, will you require an ide header?

location?

not really, it's the cheapest 2400 cos the other one is sold out and it's only $2 difference w.o a heatsink.
u can downgrade to 2133 speed, but it's also only a $2-3 difference which isnt worth it cos slower speed, no heatsink etc.

another alternative is going with 1 stick instead of dual channel

but only $7 difference
