Ok, so this computer is for a friend who wants to be a casual gamer, maybe run most games at mid. I want to put him together a Nvidia/Intel system for about $400-$500 total. He doesn't need overclocking, performance memory, or super-high end processor so I figure this is feasible.
I'm want to spend about $100-140 on the processor, duo or quad faster than or equal to 6600.
I was expecting to spend about $75-125 on the mobo, heard good things about gigabyte
Probably $20-50 on 2 gigs of ddr2 dram.
$80-120 on around 1TB hd.
$120-150 on vid card
$80-100 on case/cpu
As you can see, the lower amount of my figures almost adds up to $500, so any low cost high value parts suggestions would be great! Let me know of you need any more info.
Thanks!
