So what do you need? What parts? Do you have any other current parts that you will put into this computer?

What is your budget now?

[cracked]

the guts of your system sound fine IMO. if i had money i would try to get a nicer KB, a better mouse(Logitech MX700 cough cough) and a new set of speakers. also some new games would be cool.

Oh, i must of misread it, i guess he already has this computer. But like i said, what is your budget?

New speakers and soundcard would be nice too if you are into music and/or gaming.. BTW, The Natural Mutimedia Keyboard is $25 from microsoft, very nice keyboard if you are into natual.

[Dsword]

alright, i have a pretty good mouse, but could use a new keyboard.... oh and i need a new game or two.... any suggestions? i try not to get into the monthly fees but i will if it is worth the money.

[EndobioticChaos]

Answers to a couple questions would help.

How much are you wanting to spend?

What kind of games do you like?

For hardware, I agree about the keyboard and speakers. You might want a good sound card too. The Turtle Beach comes to mind.

[woodbutcher]

I second the Turtle beach card, well worth the money.
You just missed the sale at CC though, $40.00 AMIR.
No mention of speakers, Klipschs AND the Turtle beach card would probably give the current games your running a new dimension.

Yo!

Try Creative SoundBlaster Audigy 2 for the soundcard and an Altec Lansing 2100 speakers. The speakers are awesome! The 2100 gives crystal clear sound especially when it comes to vocals!

[Dsword]

alright ill look at the prices on those cards... i just bought C&C Generals... i am runnin XP Home as my previous post said. But i get an error saying that it cannot find Source File D:/Language.cab... but i tried it on my brothers computer which is running 98 and it installed fine.. any way to fix this? oh and how do i downgrade my computer to win 2k pro?

[Droppyale]

Well, I don't see that you have a DVD player... so that's one thing...

unless u don't watch dvds on ur comp.

If you do a lot of work on your comp... maybe an external HD to do backups?

dunno
