Custom PC (certain parts)

[QuikSilv3r47]

OK well I am just building a computer from scratch now, instead of just upgrading.

I can spend about ~$500-$600 (nothing too special)

Parts I already own: (that I'm going to use)
-x2 Hard Drives (30GB & 160GB)
-CD/DVD Drive
-Keyboard, mouse, and speakers
-Monitor (Need a better case)
-2 80MM fans


So any recommendations on a:
-GPU
-Case
-CPU (probably getting Athlon 3200+)
-Motherboard
-PSU
-Memory (Perferably 1GB)
Thats it I think?

Remember, it CANT be more than $600

Seems like a very good setup but I don't have the money for the GPU.

Then same as above but with

GPU $129 (-$20 rebate)

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814130268

MOBO $158

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813131517

That doen'st leave you much for a case, but you can pick one up for pretty cheap.

I actually may be able to get that GPU & MOBO (your other post) and just use this case, so its only like 617, so who knows.

Good catch. The 7800GT is a much better deal with the free MOBO. I'd get that if it is at all possible.
