System Build - Help

[ColemontHD]

I am looking to build a system here, somewhat for gaming, maybe BF2 at the most. I have the following hardware, but want to build a budget rig with an LCD monitor:

P4 2.8GHZ 533fsb
80GB SATA

Build me a rig around this, thanks!

do you want to use the processor you already have or do you want to upgrade

What slots does your mobo have? AGP or PCI-E?

1) 7900 GTO is much better deal/performance than the 7900 GT. HOWEVER, if BF2 is the baddest you'll be doing at 1280x1024 resolution, you don't even need that. The 7600 GT is the way to go....much cheaper and it'll handle BF2 no problem.

2) Increase your RAM

3) Bigger hard drive is cheap but won't help with gaming......though that extra space will help with mp3's, whatever.

Guys, all I have is the CPU and Hard Drive, and yes, I want to use them.
