Hi guys, here I am again for you expert help on buidling the best and getting the most for my money!

This Time I'm building a computer for my brother and this will be what he'll be using it for:

Gaming, DvD burning, and Internet. Also he needs a wireless network card.

The budget is $750.00 and he does not need monitor, keyboard or mouse.

By the way this is the case he wants.

I'm not the best one to help you, but have some patience, say 24 hours before getting a response to this. Information like this takes awhile to compile... :)

Total 870 $ US. a beast of a system.
sorry for the overbudget, but it is a nice rig.
PS total includes the case. but no optical drives/hard drives or mouse/keyboard.

Still, for $1000 or so that's a very nice rig.

I'm sure you could find the same specs on an alienware machine for twice the price :P .
 
It would be much easier if you gave us a base of parts, then we look through and make corrections and changes. Because not all of us have extra time to build computers for everyone.
 
Here ya go

120GB HDD

A tiny bit overbudget but a good system and I think i got everything you needed. If you cant go over $750 at all, scrap the 120GB HDD for an 80GB HDD and that should put you below $750...

1. Directly asking mods will prolly get the thread being the thread deprioritized
2. Bumping quickly is also likely to get a thread deprioritized

Thanks Praetor, and sorry for posting the way I did.

I like the set up you suggested, the only thing is is the memory you suggested good enough for gaming or should I spend a litte more there?
Please let me know.

Thanks!

A. notice how gALOSAT already posted after preator which makes your post uneeded since gAlOSAT could of said that himself if he needed too.

B. my guess is praetor dont waste his time specing accessories which you can get for $6.
