Caviar Black currently offers the best bang for your buck

Graphics, SoundThis build is not intended for gaming, but adding a relatively low-cost GPU like the Radeon HD 4850 will do wonders for your FPS, transforming this into a viable machine for casual PC gaming. We recently published a tech tip with a list of the top budget and mid-range graphics cards available, which should offer some guidance. In addition to a Radeon HD 4250 IGP, the chosen motherboard has a Realtek ALC662 audio chipset replica Longines L1.611.4.75.2 Men's Watches and integrated sound is more than sufficient for a basic machine.StorageThe way hard drives are priced these days, a few extra dollars can literally yield a 50% increase in storage space and the gigabytes disappear faster than you think. But if you are certain that you won't need the additional storage space, you're welcome to save a couple bucks by choosing a less capacious drive.

The 500GB Caviar Black currently offers the best bang for your buck.Power, CaseYou wouldn't put diluted gas in your car and you shouldn't feed your PC dirty power. The instability offered by your typical no-name PSU will inexorably lead to an untimely failure, leaving you with an unglamorous weight. In short, friends shouldn't let friends buy cheap power supplies. Antec's Neo Eco 400c will not only provide this build with all the power replica Longines L1.645.4.52.4 Men's Watches could ever need, it should also meet the requirements of most entry-level video cards in circulation.There are plenty of basic chassis priced in the sub-$50 bracket, and the NZXT is our personal pick with plenty of space for expandability and a stock 120mm rear exhaust fan, which should be sufficient for a system with no discrete graphics. It's almost always available with free shipping, which is a major plus if you're buying a 13lb metal box.

Monitor, Speakers, PeripheralsA 20” display doesn't sound like much these days, and there's no denying it's toward the smaller end of desktop monitors. The Asus VH202T-P 20” features a native resolution of 1600x900 and unless you've already been spoiled by larger high-res displays this should prove adequate for general computing tasks. No replica Longines L36444966 Men's Watch display in the sub-$150 range is going to boast superb imagery, and most are of comparable enough in quality that you're safe buying anything with decent reviews.We recommend just finding something that fits your size and resolution needs. Unfortunately, you'll probably have to rely on sales, rebates, open box, or refurbished monitors if you're after one that's larger than 20” and cheaper than $140.
