I already have a motherboard asus m4a88td-v so I might as well just build a cheap computer out of it since I'm not going to get any money out of the brand new motherboard. It is new never opened. Payed about $100 for it. Anyways back to the computer.
I guess I want to do like a Phenom ii x2 not really sure. I want it to be fast enough to handle basic gaming not like crysis or anything. I can't afford the graphics card to run those games anyways. So I'm looking at about $100 for the cpu, I already have a heats sink and fan for the cpu, I have an ati radeon hd4830 graphics card I can use and I need some ram. I want 4gb so 2x2 duel channel. That's about $100 as well. Plus I need a hard drive and a dvd drive. I can get a dvd drive for about $30 bucks and idk what hard drive I'm getting. I have a psu I am going to use for this computer but I want to buy a psu for my current computer which also has the same mobo, phenom ii 965 x4 (upgrading to 8gb ram) couple hard drives couple dvd drives, and i'm working on getting a new graphics card. It's actually a hackintosh and the graphics cards I have don't want to play with mac so I have to buy one that I can get to work with full hd.
So looking at roughly $250 plus the hdd plus the psu plus a case.
EXPENSIVE!
