help me spec a super cheap gaming PC
Posted: Tue Sep 23, 2008 4:44 am
I wanted to build a new non-gaming PC, but decided that for the sake of buying a 9800GT, I might as well have a gaming PC.
I am stuck on the specs of the motherboard/cpu - I would prefer AMD, just because I always bought AMD - but if there is a good reason to go Intel, then why not?
I have 3 spare HDD at the moment, so that wont be purchased.
I don't need accurate prices, as I will be buying locally.
What I do however need are specs for roughly $400 worth of components that include videocard (I see no reason why it shouldnt be a 9800GT) CPU/Motherboard/Ram and what PSU I will be needing to run this lot.
