If he gets the combo deal that I suggested but the rest of the parts same as the tastegw's build, then the build that I suggested would cost only 9$ more but you will be getting a faster CPU and IGP !

E5200 is oabout the same speed as the one I suggested and the 630i chipset was a budget chipset which is now 2 years old, plus zotac motherboards aren't the greatest.

E5200 outperforms 5200+ at stock speeds Quote: |

| The one that tastegw suggested is old as well, and it has slower IGP | |

Alright guys Ill put together a cart with parts yall suggested and show him tommorow. Thx for the filter idea his old comp is absolutely dirty i bet the inside of it is worse.
I just remembered what operating system would you guys suggest it really isnt a big deal but he wanted to know which id suggest but i really dont have a preference.
All right i looked over all the posts and after the thing over the e5200 and 5200+ and the old chipsets i personally like hikariclouds build. I added the silverstone 400w power supply in that salty suggested also.
As far as i can see its a pretty solid build any comments on it?

I would personally stick with the OCZ's.
