Check this out its a good buy if you really want to build one check the rest of the site out then….. they have everything you need.
Well first of all if you have a really tight budget overclocking wouldn’t be the best thing to do unless you get a good power supply. The GHz is dependent on the power supply and cooling so it doesn’t fry.
Mabye something like this would be good:
Intel Pentium E5200 - $149.05…80571E5200.asp
Gigabyte GA-G31M-S2L - $95.70…A-G31M-S2L.asp
SilverStone ST56F V3 - 560W - $116.40…T56F004020.asp
Gigabyte Setto 1000 - $94.60…1CASNB-01R.asp
Corsair 2048MB (2 x 1024MB) PC2-6400 800Mhz DDR2 RAM - 4-4-4-12 - $63.35…048-6400C4.asp
Seagate 250GB 7200rpm Serial ATA-II-300 HDD w. 16MB Cache - $90.20…T3250410AS.asp
Zodia 8500GT
That should come up to around $700-$800 after shipping and handling you should be able to overclock the E5200 quite a bit with the power supoply
it is possible to build a gaming rig for that price what I would suggest would be to check out the barebones models at pricewatch I use them frequently to help find the best prices
Think clearly
price show the quality of product
don’t buy the cheaper product.
