Most of the parts are probably free/gifts.

I hope you're not trying to do any gaming with this

It means whatever the hell it says before/after the word 'supporting' .... is supported.

How much is it costing your parents? and/or are you sure you want a comp for that price?

It's only $60 because i am getting it from freedesktoppc.com (the 60 is from trading offers with other people). before you go off on me saying that wont work, it will. i have seen many people on other forums who have done it.also the site is from the same people as freeipods, which you must have heard of. those are the specs that the site gives for the computer, it will come from cyberpower, brand new. i tried going on cyberpower to see if i can find more specific specs, but there are so many possibilities that have those same general specs. most likely they are the cheapest though.

as for the vid card, since it says "supporting" PCI-E does that mean that it is AGP or PCI or is it in fact PCI-E?

I dont do any extreme gaming, only counter-strike 1.6 right now, which isnt very graphic intense

If it says PCI-E it's PCI-E, if it says AGP it's AGP, there is no AGP PCI-EXPRESS card in one
