Guys, please re-read my post. All he needs is a motherboard, CPU, ram, and case. We have everything else. And $170, not $140.
Also, all it will be for is e-mail, word processing, and maybe some video editing. He just needs something that'll run XP and some basic programs.
But if you're not going to give any suggestions, then forget it. I don't even know why I asked you guys.
I'm thinking $30 for ram, $25 for case, $50 for mobo, and $65 for CPU.
