Hey guys. This is my first post on the forum. I joined because recently my patience for my 4 year old dell laptop has run thin. I herd about how much money people can save building their own computer so i'm more than excited to take a stab at it. Id like to see what you guys think of my setup. this is a rough draft and i'm open for advice. I'm going to use the computer for moderate gaming. I am on a budget so id like to stick with the Phenom II x6.

As for a graphics card and sound card i'm open for suggestions/

Thanks, Ben.
 
ok you think that 500W will be enough power? And yea more HD space should happen. I was planning on playing World of Warcraft cataclysm mostly. Maybe CoD Black Ops when it comes out.
 
Optical drive - get dvd burner instead of dvd rom

What speaker have you got?
If you do not have good speakers, there is no point of having sound card.

Video card - what is the budget of the video card?

CPU - I doubt if you really need Phenom IIx6 1090t
Anyway, you should consider these combo deals
