Hi, I'm building a cheapo PC for my sister, using some stuff I have laying around, and then buying the rest that I need. I have a budget that is indicative of both her and I being students, i.e. "as little as possible to get the job done".
Hard Drive
Graphics Card
Socket A Processor
I have: case, mobo, psu, 512mb ram, dvd drive, cd-rw drive, floppy drive, old monitor,kb and mouse.
She is just going to be using it for music and work really, and of course the odd DVD. The mobo has on-board sound, and I used it myself for 18months with no worries at all, so don't really want to bother with a sound card. What do you suggest I get? I want it to be decent quality, and I would prefer new parts really. I would not be against selling some of the stuff I have to replace it, but I don't think that is required.
Any advice would be welcome people!
