Default Build Me Cheap As Dirt Computer!
Just as the title says guys build me a cheap as dirt computer that will max out counter strike source and battle field 2. It does not matter if its intel or amd nor does nvidia or ati, just build what ever is cheaper.

Items i need....
CPU/MOBO/GPU/RAM/PSU

This computer is just going to sit on my desk so i do not need a case or anything fancy, just remember these 3 words "DIRT CHEAP COMPUTER"!!! Thanks in advance guys!

Edit:
Also do not worry about the form factor it can atx/matx/or itx

EDIT: You may want to reconsider that mobo though

2 phase VRM's and only 2 expansion slots might not be desirable
