I have built myself a new computer. The CPU I bought is an AMD 64 3500+. The Mobo is a Gigabyte GA-K8N51GMF-9. Now I know I could have done loads better, but this set is loads better then the 2gig Celeron I had before. Right now I have just enough ram (512) to hobble it along until I can afford to purchase 2 gigs. I am not for sure if I am going to get the Nvidia GeForce 7950 or wait until the new Direct X 10 cards come out. Either way I am going to have to buy a new power supply as the one in the ultra cheap case ($30) I bought is only rated at 300 watts, just enough to run the set up I have now. As it sets right now my CPU cost me $129, the Mobo cost $120, and my new Seagate 160gig HD cost me $69 for a grand total (including the case) of $318. As for my plans for the future of my new machine I will be replaceing my 17in CRT with a 20in wide-screen LCD, as I said before I will be upgrading to 2gigs of ram (4 if and when I get Vista), duel DVD burners, a better power supply, a video card that is better then the onboard GeForce 6100 that I have now. I am not for sure if I want to upgrade my sound card or just stick with the onbaord Realtek that I have now (yes I know of the Creative Labs monster Sound Blaster X-FI card and its price, no sound card should cost more then the CPU and Mobo combined).
My Case is ugly, I will be repainting it.
