Building a PC

sick osiris · 08-23-2006, 02:09 AM

I found a good site where I can build my own PC> their prices are quite good...
I was wondering if you guys could help me builid a PC that I'm thinking of buying. I have about 1000 or so to spend.

I have a fair idea of what I want, I had the stuff picked out. i just need reassurance
here is what I got: http://img165.imageshack.us/my.php?i...dreampcow5.jpg

I really want to use this for multi tasking and gaming.
im well into graphic design so id like to run programs simultaneously without lag.
basically, i want power!

so, tell me. what else do I need on to that or am I sorted?

please add me on msn.

I think thats not a good system for the price the harddrive only has 2 mb of cache. I would downgrade on the processor to a 4200 or buy a core 2 duo cause it is cheaper and better and then get a different harddrive motherboard and videocard i would get a 7600GT. And if you want to save some money dont get a prebuilt system just go to www.newegg.com and pick out some parts and put it together yourself youll save some money.

its not going to be a powerhouse. just because the video card has 512 memory doesnt mean its good. i dont know how prices are wherever you are so i cant comment on price.
