Hi, my friend is planning to buy this computer on ebay, but I told him to wait because with that money, he can customize his own computer by buying the parts individually. Here's the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Sony-Vaio-RB-VG...07QQcategoryZ52476QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
This was my build based on his budget of $500:
CPU: Athlon 64 3000+ Venice $66
MOBO: MSI K8NGM2-L Socket 939 NVIDIA GeForce 6100 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard $65
RAM: Cheap 512mb $50
HD: 160-250gb $90
CASE: Let him choose it $50-100
PSU: FSP Group (Fortron Source) FSP350-60THN-R, 2.0 version, 2 SATA, 350W - Retail $54
DVD Drive: NEC 3550A $28
Total: Around $430
Any other suggestions or recommendations? Thanks!
