1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Web browsing and light gaming
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
Say around $500 per, not counting OS licenses
3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible.
Branson, Missouri
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.
Everthing. Case. Monitor. HDD. Processor. Optical drive. Power Supply. Video Card. Would probably use onboard sound and network card.
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
None.
6) Will you be overclocking?
No.
7) What is the max resolution of your monitor? What size is it?
Will need.
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
Probably Spring. i realize that I'm a little far out for "real" pricing, but sort of getting a feel to see if I'm not way off base.
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? USB 3.0? SATA 6Gb/s? eSATA? Onboard video (as a backup or main GPU)? UEFI? etc.
None that I know of.
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If yes, what OS? Is it 32bit or 64bit?
I do not. Would need as well, but not figuring into the price.
I'm looking at building my kid's a computer each. I'm trying to teach them responsibility and the like (plus get them off my stuff). Whilst I could buy them used laptops, I don't like the portability factor, so I'm trying to get a feel if I'm in the right ballpark for pricing. Of course, I could just buy them off the shelf Dell's of the like, as well, and that would probably work.
