Looking at this case:

Looking at this PSU:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817182001

I have:
1 gig of DDR2 667
1 80 gig IDE hard drive
1 IDE CD drive

I need:

1 3.5 floppy
1 MOBO/CPU budget combo

Nothing fancy needed. Needs to work with what I already have and be cheap. Thinking a max of $100 for the MOBO/CPU/floppy

Save my mom some money!!! Get her a decent rig!!!

IF you have an extra CPU heatsink go with this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819103221, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813153120, and this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16821103116.
If you dont have an extra heatsink get this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819103255 and the total will be about 101 for all three.

Agreed, will serve the purpose of being basic and good for the ordinary user.

I don't know much about memory and backwards compatibility, will that jetway support my DDR2 667?
