I do fine with handling my software and configurations, but I'm still a novice when it comes to obtaining appropriately priced hardware.
I see that there are currently a lot of deals going on with new computer systems. Just looked at a P4 system from Dell for $530. But...I don't need a full system, nor do I need any software, including the OS.
Here's what I need:
P4 (or equivalent)
500+ (whatever the number is) megs of RAM
Good video card that can support gaming
I have a CD Burner
I have a DVD Burner
I have a network card
SO....how do I go about obtaining the pieces I need in such a way that I can actually save money? Where is the best place to shop? Do I do this online or go to Microcenter and take it in the ass? Do I try to get a stripped down computer with the case, or is it better to pick up a motherboard, chip, RAM and video card and throw it into my current Gateway case?
