Its about 400 shipped. Unless you get taxed.

Also, the AC Freezer 7 won't work on an AM2 CPU.

Comes with the following:

Quote:
* AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ 2.2 Dual Core Processor
* 1GB RAM
* 250GB SATA HDD
* SATA DVD-RW Drive w/ Lightscribe
* Integrated Video, Audio, Ethernet
* One 16x PCI-Express slot, Three PCI slots
* Keyboard and Mouse
* No operating system
So all you need to buy is maybe more RAM but you can sell what you get in the rig to make up the difference. And if you want to OC the processor, get a different motherboard and that should only cost you about $100. Then you can pick and choose what GPU you want and also, sell the parts you don't want. But all you really need is a GPU.

Yeah I miss-understood that, I thought he didn't need an OS but needed a HDD and Case. :facepalm:

Good catch friend. I'll post an updated list, and this way, better parts in a bit. *Work blocks the Egg-cause of me I think-*
