I really want to build myself a new computer. Anything is going to be an upgrade from my current computer which runs at 500 megahertz. I want to get a pretty fast system but don't want to break the bank. Here is what I have priced up at Newegg:
Computer Purchase
ASPIRE (Turbo Case) Black/Silver ATX Mid Tower Case with 350W Power Supply $47.00
ASUS KT400 Chipset Motherboard for AMD Socket A CPU $60.99
POWERCOLOR ATI RADEON 9600PRO Video Card $132.00
AMD Athlon XP 3000+ "Barton", 333 FSB, 512K Cache Processor $166.00
Buffalo Technology 184 Pin 512 MB DDR PC-3200 $88
Logitech Deluxe Plus Keyboard PS2 104keys $13.00
Lite-On Beige 52X32X52 CD-RW Drive $33.00
Labtec Spin 45 2.0 Speakers Beige $13.00
Microsoft Windows XP Professional with Service Pack SP1a $139.00
For a grand total of $681.99
I have the original copy of Windows XP Porfessional from my sister's Dell computer and I was hoping that I could use that copy in this computer. Is it possible?? The computer will be used mostly for surfing, school work, some gaming, and some Video Editing in the furture hopefully. I'd appreciate it if you guys could give me some tips on my purchase and tell me if you think anything that I have chosen will not work well. Thanks a bunch.
