Micro Build $500

[Shadeaces]

I am planning on building a new Micro Cube style PC.

My last build components were picked out by a friend, however he is not availible to help.

I am not really sure of compatibility so I need you're help.

My budget is aprox. $500.

I was planning on getting this barebone kit, however it does not include RAM, Video Card, and a DVD burner.

Can you guys select compatible components-
a 128 Video Card, 1 Gig Ram, and a Dvd Burner(One that I can just plug in and boot windows from)

Thanks!

*Edit- If the barebone kit rebate expires tommorow. I guess ill have to get a new build. If you want to help me select components that would be ideal.

Well first of all tigerdirect isnt really the best of places to order parts from. Horrible service and customer relations..


If you wanna build one of those thats fine, but why not order the parts to your likeing? Alot of stuff in there is not of good quality such as the psu. The case is a aspire Q-Pack.

That CPU fan/heatsink unit looks questionable too. Probably some generic brand and the one shown has nonstandard mounting. And it also says in the description that it may vary from what is shown That is too important a component to settle for whatever tigerdirect has laying around the warehouse and feels like getting rid of.

You can do that with an AMD Venice setup. Newegg's got all the stuff. I have it written down - it's in my pile. I'll try to find the list (after dinner) and post it.
