Default 1000$ Budget build
Just seeing what are peoples opinions on this build.

I need-
-case
-power supply
- motherboard
- cpu
- ram
- dvd drive
- hard drive
- graphics card
- monitor

Im hoping to be able to fit at least a 5850 and a 22" monitor into this budget. Not sure if thats possible or not.. I may try to buy some parts used as well.

I plan on just gaming with this computer. Nothing really too CPU intensive, and whatever CPU I end up with will sure be a heck of a lot faster than what I got now (dont look at sig, its gross.)



Show me what you come up with

HD5850 - $280
Phenom II 720 BE - $119.99
ASUS M4A78T-E - $129.99
Antec True Power New 750W - $104.99
Scythe Mugen 2 CPU cooler - $34.99
Viewsonic 22" monitor - $160
250GB Western Digital Blue - $44.99
LG DVD Burner - $27.99
G.Skill 4GB 1600MHz - $85.99
All that comes to just shy of $1000... but as you can see, there's no case. If you get a really, really, really cheap case, and get the Phenom II X2 550 BE instead, you can do it, though.

I'd say Go i5, or PII X4.

Case? Get the LanCool K62.

5850, ... Hmm.

That would add up to $1500, crc, I have all those parts listed in my wish list

Would you be willing to go LGA 1156? Do you focus more on gaming than CPU-intensive apps? If so:
CPU - i5 750
GPU - 5850/5870
PSU - Corsair 750TX
Mobo - Gigabyte's GA-P55 or ASUS P7P55D series.
RAM - OCZ 2 x 2GB
HDD - WD Caviar Black 500GB or 640GB, depends
Optical Drive - does not matter, go with Samsung's SH-223 line or Lite-on.
Monitor - ASUS VH line
Case - Lian Li PC-K62, Antec 300/900, or Cooler Master HAF 932/922, whatever fits your budget and space needs.

Do you plan on using multiple GPU's or is a single card solution okay?
