    building new computer, specs

    Well my laptop is alright, but I decided it was time to build a new low-budget but functional computer. I only play Counter-Strike right now, so I don't need anything extravagant. Here's the specs:

    Video Card: http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16814130062

    Mobo: http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16813130081

    Ram, just 2gigs etc. http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16820231098

    Processor: http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16819115014

    Power Supply: http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16817153023

    Monitors are going to be my 21 inch CRT and my factory Dell LCD, which I just had to replace the transistors on, which sucked but the monitor is alright now. Case is a factory Gateway case that I got for free, I have a CD player/burner, DVD drive/burner and floppy drive. Hard drive is only a 60gig but I have a 120 in my laptop so I'm just keeping my media on here.

    Just tell me what you guys think of everything.

    Really nice choice of stuff. It may not be expensive but you've definitely got some quality hardware in there. What are you doing for a sound card, though? I'd go with a Creative X-Fi if you're looking for some top-notch sound for your gaming. And a 60 gig hard drive simple does not cut it for a desktop. For what you're building, I would recommend at least upgrading to at least a 160.

    You apparently like buying from newegg, which is a good thing. Might I suggest this for a hard drive?
