Right. Now,
What main components should I get? This is my prospective system (open to change) on www.neocomputers.com
.1.47 Ghz Athlon XP
.geForce3 ti200 pure 64 mb DDR
.512 MB DDR Kingston
.120 GB 7200rpm UltraDMA133
.52x Creative Labs IR CDROM
.Sound Blaster Audigy
.4 80mm case fans
.350watt mid-tower case (4 usb, yadda yadda)
.Mouse+Keyboard+Nice Headphones
.Cooling Kit (stupid OEM)
.Soyo Dran..something DDR Socket A mobo
~$850-950USD
... I won't get this until about June-July (funds are slowly coming in... ) so I'm sure things will change (read : processor, video card). Couple of questions - OEM. I'm a semit-n00b to hardware and I was wondering the benefits/downfalls of this. Cheaper? What video card will be best in the future? Just need a computer that will upgrade well and efficiently. Any info welcome. Thanks.
