well i kno i've built nice computers...like my computers have been able to handle doom, and i use for my major gaming and video editing. And i only payed about 870$ for. I'm also a bargain hunter, but if u look well enough im sure u can find the essentials to build sumthin extreme without hitting the extremes

Sweet
 Ive always wanted to build my own computer, but im sure i would mess up big time and end up frying every thing...Any one know about how much it would cost to build your own "Medium Line" computer? |

flushingcomic:
I saw you would buy a 754 socket. I strongly recomend to buy a 939 socket. 754 Socket processors and mobo's are very cheap now, I agree whit that. But over 8 months, the product will not be available anymore, so there are no upgrade options for you, when you choose 754. With 939, you can upgrade for the upcomming years, and you have the ability of PCI-E. (2 videocards in one pc. ) Maeby you don't need this, but I think with socket 754, you cannot upgrade in the future. |

yes this is really good one to read. it will be more useful to persons like me who are using computer for some time but don't know what is inside it. if you provided screen shots then it may be more useful.
