If i was in your place and was planning on building a new game system on a budget and i am btw =P i would go to newegg.com and read through all the reviews for everything your thinking about getting. that way you will know what to expect. i just spent a couple days digging through the reviews on everything i would want for a computer and it looks like $1200 or so for one hell of a nice game rig. amd 3700+ 2gig ram 7800gt 256mb vid card spiffy 250gig sata western digital hard drive and everything else needed for a new computer other then a keyboard and moniter. Oh yeah i decided to get a asus board this time instead of gigabyte just to give it a try. =) but gigabyte is one hell of a board if your on a budget. same features as asus at half the price and they basicly encourage overclocking. Only reason im not getting one this time is because i know some have trouble using a USB keyboard for some reason. And im using a microsoft egronomic thats USB only wont work with ps2.
i love that site good cheap place to get stuff but even if you want to buy local or whatever just reading the buyers reviews is worth the info. might want to check out tomshardware.com as well they have alot of good reviews.
