This will be my first time i need help on what parts i should buy.
i will only be playing one game and that is fifa09 and all the upcoming fifa's also will be using it for normal use such as internet, office work, etc. what parts would be good also im on a tight budget the most i can spend is around 500 dollars the less the better. Thank you for all your help

Are you going to need an operating system, monitor, keyboard/mouse?

 

[bawz]

Motherboard
CPU
RAM
GPU
CD/DVD drive thingy
Harddrive
Case with PSU included
Now idk if this stuff is compatible, so would someone please check? But this is about 500 dollars; a fairly good PC if you're only going to play FIFA and do some internetting and stuff. I just looked this up very fast, so again, someone please check if this is compatible with eachother and make changes if needed?

The built in video on that board is GeForce 7025 which should be good enough based on the below spec requirements however they are so confusing with their numbers i dont know what order they go in but its between the two so id say you would be good...

so your looking at about 430 with shipping and the o.s. provided you dont need the keyboard mouse and montior.

and dont forget this has a pci-e x16 slot so theres always the chance to upgrade the video...you can find a good 1gb card for about 100$

Nah, barebones kits are usually just stuff they wanna clear outta stock, or arent that good of a deal/lower quality stuff. Now for the price you could go for something like this:
