1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
World of Warcraft, PS CS5, YouTube, basic browsing, etc.
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
~600 including shipping & taxes
3) Where do you live?
CA
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. The word "Everything" is not a valid answer. Please list out all the parts you'll need.
CPU, Mobo, PSU, RAM, HDD, Case, GPU
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
Optical Drive + Monitor
6) Will you be overclocking?
No
7) What size monitor do you have and/or plan to have?
17in. -- not upgrading right now, but possible in the future
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
Ordering by Monday
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? USB 3.0? SATA 6Gb/s? etc.
Nothing special needed
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If yes, what OS? Is it 32bit or 64bit?
Yes, 64bit W7
I'm helping a friend who's coming from a P4/7600GT and wanting to build a decent mid-range computer for WoW and other various applications such as Photoshop, etc. with PS CS5 probably being the most demanding of these all. I've already picked the parts that I feel will suffice for these needs, but I'd like some feedback or possible suggestions for changes. She will be purchasing from Amazon as they don't charge tax to CA residents + she has Amazon prime (free shipping on most everything).
Case - CM HAF 912 - $59.00
Motherboard - Asus M4A77TD - $74.99
CPU - AMD Phenom II X4 955 BE - $139.99

RAM - 4GB DDR3 1333 - $39.99
