    Sorry! I need a case but don't need a burner.

    Foreign Build

    Thanks for your patient and informative reply. Sorry--I should have followed the standard procedure; my request is apparently not as unusual as I thought. Answers: 6) Will you be overclocking? No 8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC? As soon as I figure out what a good build is I'll...

    Foreign Build

    I live in Thailand, so I can't get stuff from Newegg, Amazon, etc. My current desktop is ancient (6-7 years?) and dying so I want to make a new build that will last for a while. Main use is watching movies and TV I download together with some light photoshop and lightroom. I'd like to be able...

    Good machine for Photography/Image processing

    Actually, I'm doing this build for a friend who wants to buy a standard Dell build, which goes against all that is right in the world by my standards, and he just told me he wants to keep his current monitor, so life is good. He also mentioned that he has some old home movies and that at some...

I did a search of my own before posting and waded many posts looking for an hour or so, but found only a few that were similar to my needs and those...

    Good machine for Photography/Image processing

    I would like to build a machine to use for my photography hobby. What can you come up with for say a thousand dollars including a nice monitor and 4 gig of nice ram? I assume a basic graphics card will do as I will do no gaming. I think a 500 gig hard drive should be a good start. Thanks in...

    What's a Nice Basic Video Card?

    He has a 20" lcd now, but may add a second monitor when has the capability. His current monitor runs at 1600X1200 if I recall correctly.

    What's a Nice Basic Video Card?

    A friend has a Dell computer he bought with no graphics card but a pci 16x slot. He doesn't game, but wants support for multiple monitors. Video lags sometimes with his current lack-of-card setup. I'm guessing he could get by with a $50 card, but money isn't really an issue if there's some cool...

    Crucial Ballistix 1GB PC2-6400 DDR2 DIMM Memory Kit $42.99AR

    The rebate form says you're only allowed one rebate per household so you can only get one stick at that price. :( Am I reading that correctly?
