Custom Build Yourself a PC (2 Viewers)

[happyme]

Custom build yourself a PC (gaming machine) within a budget of $2,500-$3,300.

Obviously very good video graphics card & sound card is extremely important.

I would prefer it custom built from www.f2f.com.au

Thanks.

EDIT: I would also prefer 17 or 15 inch LCD inch monitor within the budget - if possible.

wanna check out this place

www.msy.com.au

it's one of the cheapest place right now

That website is so disorganised, very difficult to read.

What do you think of this system? Worth the money?

Would it be a above average game system? (i'm a noob).

I so want a 17 inch LCD monitor.

if your a gamer and going to use this system for gaming, then you need something much better than a 128MB GEFORCE 4 MX440SE Video Card

also Lite-On is a much better brand for CDRW/DVD than LG

do u really want a floppy drive?

GET THE FLOPPY!!!! steal it.. save $10
cos when u want to upgrade the firmware and BIOS sometimes its the most easiest and reliable method..

mabbe PC3700 ram so u can OC it ?HEAPS^^ use 1GB
GET A RADEON ATI 9600 or better with at least 128mb RAM
and get many cooling systems cos its cheap and stops the comp overheating if u OC it..
