What should i buy?

[Marphill]

I have a list of things i would like to get (in regards to computer accesories):
LCD Monitor, 200gig hd, tv tuner card, Graphire3 tablet, new speakers.
What are your opinions on what should be the first thing i should get? What are the best LCD monitors, tv tuner cards, speakers?
Thanks

i agree because your mobo probably has integrated audio because lots do, but then there are also lots that dont have integrated video so capt ka is right.

1. What kinda setup do you have now? (specs)
2. What do you intend to use the system for?
3. What's the budget available?

1. My current specs are:
AMD Athlon XP 2600
512MB RAM
80GB WD HD
RADEON 9200 SERIES Graphics card 128Mb
HP 14.3" CRT Monitor
Gigabyte 7VT600 Motherboard (inbuilt sound)
Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-108
monitor speakers

2. I use it for gaming, listening to music, watching movies etc, homework, limited 3d graphics work and image editing, umm pretty much just general stuff.

3. Budget is approx. $800

As the spec you listed video card and LCD monitor are the first to be purchased in my view.
$300-400 for LCD monitor
$200 for video card
the left $200-300 can be distributed to others needed....

Well IMO it depends slightly on how heavy-duty the games you play are... if your 9200 can handle it (to your satisfaction) then upgrade the other things..... if not then a videocard upgrade might be a priority
