One of the uses will be for gaming. The budget is $500
I already have 2 x 256MB of corsair, but it's DDR333
I already have a TT 430 watt PSU, Logitec speakers, and a Viewsonic flat panel monitor.
He's 9, so looks of the case will be important to him.
We play Call of Duty, Far Cry, Prince of Persia 3D, we may get Civ4.
I like the RAIDMAX Samurai Case $80
I think the video card will be most important, This MSI X800 128MB is $137
A AMD Sempron 64 2800+ is $75.5
A BIOSTAR NF4 4X-A7 Socket 754 MB is $63
A Maxtor 200GB SATA150 Hard Drive is $84
add a black floppy for $7.75 and a keyboard & mouse for $18 and the total is $465 + $40 shipping.
What about the video card? 12 pipes + 256bit memory should be a step or two above the 6600GTs for the same price. comments?
Is the Sempr0n enough CPU? I don't plan to overclock.

the demand has driven the price up since. But it's still a great value because it unlocks to 16pipes and most will clock to X850XTPE speed.
