I need to build a PC for $900 and not a penny more.. Its been WAY to long and im not up to date with hardware specs. So I need your helps CF..

Requirements :

Must have 3 gigs of RAM
Must have 2 DVD burners


Uses:

Mostly internet and microsoft office work. Some gaming but nothing serious. Not looking to run Bioshock 2. More along the lines of Counter strike source.

Notes :
Computer screen and speakers not included in $900.

CPU -not sure
Motherboard - not sure
RAM - 3gigs
GFX Card - cheap 512 should do fine
HD 500gb+
Two (2) DvD burners
Tower - nothing 2 fancy
Power supply - whatever is standard today.
Soundcard - depending on quality of Mobos generic sound device

Just need a computer that will be good 2 go for a few years without any upgrades.

thanx EVERYONE!!!

EDIT:

Should be fine for what you want to do,Well its overkill realy but wth....

Hows that.....its overkill for what you want to do,But its a fast system...i left out an OS just incase you dont need one,if you do theres plenty left in your budget for it :)

Total = $799.91

IF you realy wanted to bring the price down you could go with an AMD Athlon II X2 setup,now it wont be as powerfull as that system above and will be dual core only,BUT will still do what you want with ease.
