I agree with AllGamer, not very high expectations for a PC, Get the all mighty ATI Radeon 9800 Pro DDR2 256MB
I think its out - not 100%. If its not out, wait or get a ATI Radeon 9800 Pro without 256MB DDR2.
If you can afford it, Get an Athlon 64bit or XP3000+
Possibly SBAudigy or Live with any leftover change, onboard sound isnt up to much.
Graphics and PSU are a major concern, your looking at at least a radeon 9500 Pro for a top end gamers machine nowadays and the PSU ideally should be arounf the 420W mark and from a decent and reliable manufacturer as opposed to the generic pre-bundled jobbies
Originally posted by T21000 WASTE OF MONEY dont spend ur money on this 32bit technology, wait a little and get the 64bit amd processor
how much more will the 64-bit technology cost when its released. if you upgrade in small amounts you wont be too far behind the tech curve and you wont waste tons of money on techj that will be half the price in 18 months.
As others have said, as Dream Machines go, my aspirations are higher -- several thousand $$ higher -- but that's one that could be built at a very reasonable cost so it's an attainable dream, which isn't a bad thing at all.
That's a very solid basic gaming computer, if you get a real power supply, at least 350W (maybe even 400-430W) and a good brand. The generic PS that comes with a low cost case like that is almost always total **** that doesn't even come close to the modest specs it claims. Trust me, it won't be reliable and may take the motherboard with it when it dies, so not a good risk.
The Radeon 9200 would do fine as a budget card to get you by until you could afford better, but if you're at all serious about gaming you'll want something more powerful as soon as you can afford it.

Good value motherboard
I'm not an extreme gamer as i have probably explain too many times so the 9800, although, a very sweet card would just waste my money.
I will however wait till Athlon 64.
Onboard sound is enough for me personal cause I won't be spending money on new speakers (6.1) anytime soon...If you've seen the picture of my current speakers then you'd understand...(That 15 inch monitor in that picture is no longer I now have a 19 inch)

I guess this isn't a dream machine but rather and upgarde from what I currently have....
Power supply would be upgraded...yes for me 9200 is enough....
