Needs build it myself reseller that is reputable

[imported_intricate]

Can anyone recommend a reputable reseller who would allow me to select the components I need to build my desktop box? I dont need a mouse, kb, or monitor. I prefer dual core Athlon and dual output NVIDIA based video card with 2 Gb RAM. Cant seem to find any resellers of repute on reseller ratings above 8.0. Thanks everyone!

Newegg will sell everything you need

Any particular reason why you are going for an AMD system? The Core 2 Duo is widely accepted as the best chip out there, and you get more performance per dollar with it than you would with an AMD chip.

The GPU with 2GB of RAM is a bit of overkill in my opinion... what exactly are you planning on doing with the system, and what size monitor do you have (if you don't say 30" then it is definitely overkill)

Maybe he/she meant 2GB actual RAM. Anyway, here are some good sites My list, watch out for buy.com,though

Yes, but what possible reason would a person have for only wanting 2GB RAM? If they are building a DDR2 system, they can spend $10-15 more over 2GB and have 4GB. Easy Peasy

Newegg's website is awesome. You can easily pick out and order all of your parts in 5 minutes if you know what you are doing there. Plus you get the added bonus of knowing your shipping status all the way to your door through their integration with the shipping carriers.

I know mwave.com, censuspc.com, directron.com does the select the parts and then you can have them put it together or you put it together. I'd say the best thing to do is go to fatwallet.com or slickdeals.com and when they have cheap power supply and case combo, buy them. You see all those other parts, hard drive, dvd, ram, motherboard, cpu flunk down and up all the time, but cases and powersupply are less common. If you take this advice, you can build a computer for $200-300 but you yourself have to put it together, you can do it, watch youtube, go to google, there are people offering free instructions.
If you put it together through the other sites I've listed, its safe, but ends up costing you more, and you would be better off going to dell.com.
