Okay here is what I have thrown together so far. Take into consideration this is just a starting point and me and my friend will more than likely tweak on this some.
Items I currently have:
Logitec MC518 Mouse
Saitek Eclipse Keyboard
Saitek Cyborg Evo Joystick
Raidmax Scorpio ATX case
CD/DVD Burner
New upgrade items:
GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3L LGA 775 Intel P35 ATX Intel Motherboard - $93.99
MSI NX8600GTS-T2D256E-OC GeForce 8600GTS 256MB 128-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card – Retail - $149.99 ($20 mail-in rebate)
Rosewill RP550V2-S-SL 550W SLI Ready-ATX12V V2.01 Power Supply 115/230 V CSA,UL,TUV,FCC – Retail - $54.99
Intel Dual-Core E2160 Allendale 1.8GHz 1MB L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor – Retail - $82.99 (lots of good reviews on this CPU)
OCZ Platinum Revision 2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Retail Extended Voltage Protection - $79.99
($35.00 mail-in rebate)
Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3250410AS 250GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive – OEM - $69.99
Total price before rebates: $$531.94 + tax
Total price after rebates: $476.94
Any recommendations? Our goal is to be under $500 after rebates and will pretty well stick to it.
Thanks for looking!
