    Help with computer parts.

    Ok as of now I have 512MB of PC2100 Ram, a Gforce 3 64MB and a P4 1.7 (I think). Well working at the food store gave me $500 and now I need a new system. I need a new Processor, PSU, Video Card, Ram, Case, motherboard, and HDD. I have a DVD burner and monitor, keyboard and mouse. I was looking at the XFX Geforce FX5500 256MB. Anyway I want to try to buy off newegg. If you can just give me the name of the profuct or the link. Thanks in advance.

        Dude don't ****in buy the 5500. Save up 500 more dollars and build a whole new system. I built the system in my sig for 1076, w/o the monitor, keyboard, mouse, soundcard, speakers.

            Nitemare, did you buy all those components from newegg.com?

            If not, can u show me some links to where you got all ur components from? I'm gathering the stuff i need to build one right now but everything has come to $1300, which is over my budget.

            Thanks man i would apprecitate it.

            Sorry for the interruption continue the thread.

            Yea man please dont get the fx5500 i have the fx5500 128mb right now and please listen from a real 5500 user i get an average of 15-20 fps with everything on low. Trust me save up a little more money and please get a better graphics card if you don't mind playing with everything on low.

                    Get the 6600 GT, not just the plain 6600. 6600GT is a very good mid-range card.

                      What about a
                      Althlon 64 3000 (Venice) £95
                      1024 PC3200 Entry Level Crucial ram £70
                      Gigabyte Mobo £65
                      450Watt PSU £20
                      Geforce 6600 £80
                      200GB HD £50
                      That comes down to £380 which is about $680 knock off about $80 cause of cheaper over you end.

                      Can you stretch an extra $100?????

                      There is no reason in scaling down to an Athlon XP 3000 Barton and cheaper Mobo. Should be able to shave off an extra $80.
