What kind of computer do you need? Games, office apps, video/photo editing?

What is your budget?

New and $400 for gaming. Not gonna happen. Try looking at some socket 478 MOBOs, and DDR ram, then spend the rest on the best graphics card you can afford. An early P4 is extremely reasonable and so is the ram. You wont be able to run the latest games, but if your budget is that low you probably can't afford these games any way. Gaming is going to be ascoiated first with your graphics card then your ram and processor.

I personally would look for a used high end AGP card. 1 gig of quality ram.(can still be bought new) Tiger direct or geeks.com will have new MOBOs and processors in this category if you want to go this route. if you want to buy them together you'll probably have to buy used.
