Current Specs:
Mainboard: Gigabyte 8ipe1000P
Chipset: Intel i865G
Processor: Pentium 4 @ 2666 mhz
Video Card: All in Wonder x800 something or another
Physical Memory: 1280 mb
OS: XP
This rig (the one you put together in your post) will be used primarily for gaming, since I'm mostly going to be playing City of Heroes/Villains, but I'd like to be able to play newer games on fairly high settings as well. I don't need Vista, I don't need a monitor or any other peripherals. If you can, make two lists, one of which is as if money is not an option (if it seems viable, I'll just keep saving up) and the other where $900 is my budget. If it's too much work to make two lists, just go for the "900 is my budget" list. I don't mind using onboard sound (since that's what I've always used), so I don't think a sound card is necessary. Include it if you believe It'll bring about a significant improvement in the system's performance.
If I don't respond immediately, my apologies. I haven't had much time to browse the net recently, but I'll try to respond with praises and thanks' asap.
