I'm building a PC and I want it to be a smooth experience with Vista.

Intel E2200
4 gigs ram
350 antec PSU
Asus P5B-VM SE (integrated graphics)


Im mostly concerned about the CPU. I'm looking for suggestions (i would like the cheapest core 2 that will run vista smoothly) on the CPU... and if anyone has a link to that site that estimates how big of a PSU you need, please link. Im a little worried about the 350 being too small. thanks!
 
there wont be a problem with the cpu!

as you are using onboard graphics i think good brand 350watt psu should be enough but will your onboard graphics run vista aero is another question!
 
4gbs ram is good, psu is fine, intergrated graphics will most probs be fine as most asus m/bs are good quality. ur current cpu is the one i was about to choose, but then i came into having a little more money and changed my mind and purchased the E4700

all in all vista should run fine and you could allways update your process at a later date, eg u see one going cheap, a friend has a spare etc etc
 
i have built a computer using that chip, installed xp on it but the processor is very quick for a low end dual core-was very surprised "performance & cost"

i am currently building another using the same chip and will be running vista on it!
 
ok, thanx, im sure the 4 GB of ram will easily make up for using a cheaper cpu, and yes you do get a lot of power for cash with it
