Perfect Computer

Hi,

Well I haven't posted in along time but I have been busy. Today I wanted to talk about what specifications you should use to build you perfect computer for different budgets.
I am only going to use intel processors as they seem to perform better than AMD processors and only using Gigabyte motherboards as I haven't really had much experience with other brands. Gigabyte motherboards also seem to be the least problematic.
NB: All prices are in AUD
Also, all prices are from staticice.com. They are carrecta s of today. Prices will most likely come down.
Firstly, there is under $500.
Well, you can't really build a decent computer for under $500 but it can be done. It can be for word processing and surfing the internet. Forget about gaming at this budget.
Case + PSU: Coolermaster Centurion 5 case with 430W Power Supply
Motherboard: Gigabyte Ga-G31M-S2L with Intergrated Graphics
CPU: Intel E2180 2.0GHz
RAM: Kingston 2GB Kit DDR2-800
HDD: Seagate SATA2 160GB 8MB cache
Floppy: Generic
DVD Burner: Pioneer DVR-215D w/o software
OS: Windows XP Home Edition
TOTAL = $515

(Well there you go, you can get a pretty decent system for $500.)

I will add more prices soon
