$1000 Gaming and MIsc
Hello! My laptop is done for so I thought this would be the perfect time to begin building my own PC. Here is a build list taken from others...
CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16824009145 Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Kentsfield 2.4GHz LGA 775 Quad-Core Processor Model BX80562Q6600 $189.99 Graphics Card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130370 EVGA 896-P3-1260-AR GeForce GTX 260 896MB 448-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card $264.99 -$45.00 Instant $219.99 Memory: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820227289 OCZ Reaper HPC 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model OCZ2RPR10664GK $70.99 DVD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16827136149 LG 20X DVD±R DVD Burner w/ SecurDisc Tech Black SATA Model GH20NS15 $22.99 HDD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822152098 SAMSUNG Spinpoint F1 HD502lJ 500GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM $59.99 Motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128358 GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard $136.99 Case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119047 COOLER MASTER Centurion 5 CAC-T05-UB Black /Blue Aluminum Bezel , SECC Chassis ATX Mid Tower Computer Case $49.99 Power Supply: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139006 CORSAIR CMPSU-750TX 750W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Power Supply $119.99 Monitor: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16824009145 Acer X223Wbd Black 22" 5ms Widescreen LCD Monitor $169.99 I want to use this to play games, and do school work. I will use the page that is on the web...cant think of the bloody name right now... However, I also want to connect to the internet, itunes, dreamweaver, and that should pretty much cover it. Any better options? I am kinda at the limit for my budget but if there are superior parts that are not too much more I may wait a little to get the money. Everything match up? Thanks ahead of time. I plan on getting some replies and if all is well, placing the order

Good list.
My suggestion is to swap that hard drive for a Western Digital. Also, your links are dead. The forum shortens them if you just highlight/copy/paste. Use "Copy ShortCut" in the right click menu instead.

Looks like a good build. I believe I remember someone saying the DVDRW w/Secure Disc had some problems.
I could be mistaken so if anyone knows for sure please please correct me. |

No need for DDR2-1066 ram with that processor - I'd save some bucks and get regular old DDR2-800.

You want a WD caviar black, but the 500gb and 640gb are out of stock right now.
