Advice on this build
I have never built a computer before so I thought I would give it a try, please help me with this list I may do some gaming but not alot as far as budget I think this totals up pretty close to where I want to be. I could not get the links to work sorry, is there anything that I have left off or need or could use different but with the same performance,
MB- P5K-E N82E16813131196 149.99 Case- Antec Sonata III 129.95 Hdd- Seagate N82E16822148262 79.99 Ram Corsair N82E16820145590 53.00 Proc Intel Core 2 N82E16819115030 169.99 Optical Lite On N82E16827106072 32.99 Video Evga N82E16814130287 69.99 |

Welcome to teh Board.
What is your budget? The list looks good. You did you're homework. If you're main goal is a gaming machine, then you need a better video card. If you can afford it, look at the e6750 instead. It's only about $20 more.

With what I have listed that is pretty close to my budget but I could go $20 more for the other e6750, I dont think I will play alot of games but what would you recommend for a better video card that will not break the bank and by the way thanks for the help

This card might be better: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130311
I'm sure others will come and voice their opinion as well. |

I am not sure what video card you have listed, but check out this review. The entry level cards they list are good all around cards for the casual gamers and non-gaming applications.

I have decided to just build a decent computer instead of a gaming machine with what i have listed please tell me what you think if I could stay below 500.00 that would be great. I have everything listed I think but an OS.

Thats a good list.
The link works for you on Newegg because your cookie keeps you logged in.

For a working system, that will cover everything.
Do you already have the peripherals?

Be sure to buy the 'Retail' CPU, here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819115031 and it will come with a heatsink.
Your case has a fan included, which will be fine for your setup.

Yup, that board has a PCI-Express slot for video cards when you need one.
