Looming PC build

[Jim]

Greetings.
I think you are confused. I currently have an AMD Athlon XP 3200, 1GB of Kingston Hyper X DDR 400, a Seagate Barracuda 80GB hdd, a BFG Tech Nvidia 7300GT agp card, a Soundblaster live 24bit, and a TT Volcano 12. I am getting the 8800GT pci-e from a friend who just upgraded. I am human so I make mistakes. I looked at several cases and perhaps confused the model. The case I will be getting in addition to all my parts, is on newegg. The case I refer to is the special edition Cooler Master Nvidia case. I am well aware of how old this hardware is, and am not worried in the slightest. I build all my own PC`s and know from experience how quickly things become outdated. This current rig has lasted far longer than any before it, but I have built several rigs for friends over the past couple of years. My budget for this budget build, is $1000 us. I failed to mention I will be getting a new keyboard, mouse , and monitor. All in all, I am on track for my budget thus far. For those curious, I will be getting a logitech g15 keyboard, a logitech 518 mouse, and a 22 or more inch lcd monitor of some sort. Cheers !

Hi, :)

I have one question, please, is your post for advice and suggestions or just to say Hello & give an update to your new build ???

I offered advice which I feel you took an offense too ?

And YES you do have much more experence than I do, but we can still learn from each other, that is what a forum is for learning & sharing knowledge...good luck & may you boot on your first try :P
