Could someone help point me in the right direction?

[mrchainsaw]

I'm looking to get a PC for school, internet, and music. I want a relatively big HD for my music, be able to burn DVDs and CDs, get fast downloads and fast internet. I might to some gaming, but probably not enough to spend more than what I need for what I said above. If possible, I'd like to spend $600 at the VERY most. Thanks in advance.

are you interested in building your own? or are you wanting custom built for you? or just one off the shelf?

 

[mrchainsaw]

Oh sorry, I'd most likely build it since it's cheaper that way.

[mrchainsaw]

I'd be getting a completely new setup. I'm using my family computer now. I want one for my room.

 

[ripken2004]

[mrchainsaw]

Then I won't be playing any games.

I don't know yet. I'm still saving money anyway. Those are some good deals. If I had all the money, then I'd definately think about it.
