Barebones Kit Rate it!

Would you be up to building the whole thing yourself? If so I think you could get a better price, we could help you find all the right parts. :)
 
yeah you could probably get those parts yourself and maybe for a little cheaper if you hunt for it or look for rebates. that'll also have the exact parts you want instead of having a pre-set combination
 
I tried setting stuff up myself but it was more expensive, blame my inexperience. If you guys wanna build for me that would be awesome. Some detail then

-Budget 1000-1200 out the door including shipping
-Purpose, gaming/media

I need a monitor and keyboard but no Operating System.
The purchase would be within the next month.

Work your magic!

huh. i've never seen the e7200 before, but i dunno if it would be very good. it only has 3mb of cache, maybe an e6550 or e6750 would be a better choice?

No video card? poor guys going to have a whole load of trouble using that system..

Also he gave you $500 more budget to work with, I am guessing that's for a GPU and monitor?

Tuffie.
