You need a motherboard too, genius. Split between four items, for the $200 budget, that's $50 an item; for the $300 budget, that's $75 an item. Where exactly you think you're going to find a "gaming" graphics card for under $100?

heeee Yea I need MB too I know I am such a Banchout!
I really dont know what I can get for a video card

I actually just picked up a (newegg) refurbed 6600 Vanilla last week for under $100, so there are some options out there. Don't forget about a refurb/used 9800Pro (or less actually) either, they're still very powerful cards when the IQ settings aren't too high.


MrCodeDude-

With your current budgets you're probably going to have to settle for used/refurbed equipment (it's not that bad ). I'd really suggest finding a cheap NF3-250 s754 board, pair it up with a nice 2600 or 2800 sempron (you only need to add in a few dollars to get the newer version with 64-bit extensions if they're desired), and then look for 512MB ddr ram for ~ $35-45. If you use your rescources and look carefully for good deals, you may be able to find the proc/mobo/ram for about 130 (or cheaper) after shipping (~40 for the board, 50 for the proc, and 40 for the ram). Use whatever money you have left for the video card. With $70-80 I'd suggest trying to find a used 9800Pro, or possibly 9700Pro if you're budget is already too limited at that point (maybe a cheap 6600 if you get lucky).

For the $300 budget I would follow the same steps, except you have some more options. I'd suggest adding in another 512MB of ram, and then use the extra $55-65 of the budget for a better video card (a 6800 would be great at that point if you have enough funds, and hope for a successful unlock of course ). You could use the extra $100 just for a better video card (that's probably still in 6800 vanilla territory actually), or you could essentially buy everything from the $200 budget except in new condition rather than used (you'd have some money left over too for more ram or a better video card). With your budgets so low I'd really stick to the used/refurbed components.. it will really help you get a good bang for your buck system in the end. Hope this helps!
