"Family" Computer, need help w/ parts
Hey everyone, I sort of gave up my old computer hobbies so I'm in the dust when it comes to parts. My parents have decided to finally replace the slow, old, and out of date computer downstairs (it's at least 7 yrs old).
It's pretty simple: Budget: 700 (lower the better) Uses: General internet use, word processing, and a stream of a video once in a while. I don't think spending $$ on a video card is worth it because they won't be doing any gaming or anything. I should be able to cover the CD/DVD drive with one I have here. I'm looking for a bang for the buck computer without going to a store and buying one of those peices with no name parts. Any good and cheap parts that are recommended are highly appreciated. Windows 7 is planned on being installed. Looking for: Mobo - CPU - PSU - Case - (i'll find one) Ram - HD - (don't need anything big at all) CD drive - I got one. Monitor - (looking for suggestions on a good quality 20") Keyboard - (i'll find one) Mouse - (i'll find one) |

i do not recommend building a computer for windows 7 withoug a video card. As far as a motherboard you would do much better going with this Asus M4A77D and adding this video card to the build
