Thank you for the idea's.

Here is what I have came up with on my own, I would like to shave some money off if possible. Monitor - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0058UUR6E/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER Asus VS248H-P 24-Inch Full-HD LED-lit LCD Monitor PSU -...

1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc Gaming and photoshop primarily. 2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included? $800-1200. 3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible. Salt Lake City...

300-450 US Doesnt matter. I am not looking to build something, it would be foolish at this price range. Looking for a deal on a dell or HP :)

I just went to my parents for christmas and my dad was playing Rome Total war. It took 15-20 seconds to simply scroll a few inches over. His computer is like 12 years old. So I want to get him a cheap budget computer, a Dell or HP. Has anyone spotted any good deals lately? He only surfs...

I am looking to upgrade my 64GB SSD, and I have 300 or so I can spend. I was wondering if http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148442 Is still a really good deal. Is there anyone that has purchased a SSD recently that can give me some advice?

I used the stock paste and cooler, I have not OC'ed it yet. I'm sure it was a bug, I have updated the bios and now its hovering around 40C

Just to be sure I just redid it, the Temp is lower now, but still not somewhere I would want it to be. When I had it off, I felt it and it was cool to the touch. Im almost positive the censor is malfunctioning.

I just fired up my Sandy build for the first time and immediately entered into the bios to look around and make sure everything looked good. The CPU temp is reading at max temp and is in red. This struck me as odd because I just plugged it in a mere 3-5seconds before entering bios. How could...

That build is almost identical to what I have ordered, if you dont plan on buying in the next week Ill report back after I get mine built. If space is a issue, there is a 1tb F3 HD for not much more.

Your correct, I saw the processor on his to do list and didn't see the mobo in the already have list. Everything seems like rather good choices from I've gathered over the last few weeks. I didn't see a SSD in there anywhere. That would provide quite a boost for your OS and gaming side of things.

I would suggest taking the 2500k and adding a SSD in there. Or atleast getting a SSD at some point. You will see a much higher gain in performance with one over a slightly better CPU. I had a very similar budget of 1200, and ended up spending $1,152.55. The only real difference I came out...

What is your budget? You can make a very good sandy bridge PC for fairly cheap.

At which end? Does it crash when you wiggle it at the computer, or at the connectors in the Joybox to ps2 end. Is there a different USB you can try plugging it into? If its on the joybox side, you can try just replacing it. If its at the computer side and moving it to a new USB port doesnt...

So you are going to need a HD as well? Its not listed in either your reuse, or needed list.
