My friend asked me to build him a PC for under $1000. He also wanted to go Intel. I was not sure if I should convience him to go AMD .
I heard that Intel runs more stable but I was not sure if thats true.
Anyhow, he already has the case, keyboard, mouse, screen, case, cdroms.
Also I was notsure to get a FSP or Rosewill:
Rosewill RV450-2 ATX 2.01 450W Power Supply
OR
FSP Group (Fortron Source) AX450-PN ATX12V 450W Power Supply
All the stuff was bought from newegg
$214 CPU
Intel Pentium 4 640 Prescott 800MHz FSB 2MB L2 Cache LGA 775 EM64T
$60 Motherboard
ASRock 775Dual-880Pro ATX Intel
$130 DDR2 2 Gigs memory
WINTEC AMPO 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM Unbuffered DDR2 533 (PC2 4200) Dual Channel Kit System Memory
$200 Video card
eVGA 256-P2-N386 Geforce 6800GS 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card
$90 HDD Serial ATA150
Maxtor DiamondMax 10 6L200S0 200GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache Serial ATA150 Hard Drive
His maximum cost is $1000, all of the above comes out to be ~$800. So if there any bad things like "That Mobo doesnt support Prescotts!* please tell me. I will appriciate it.
