    What is the cheapest price you can build a high-end computer for?

    I came up with $550 without a monitor

    ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe Motherboard
    xp3000 amd cpu
    80 gb western digital hd
    ATI RADEON 9600 XT (128 MB) Graphic Card
    kingston ddr ram 512k
    and the little shit, keyboard, mouse

    didnt include a cdrom or dvd drive

    is this a good price?

    also this is for my perticular needs, i dont play alot of games on the pc hardly ever.

    If you can get shit cheaper hook me up with your source

    not high-end. athlon cpu are history
    looks decent for 550, add a little more (around 800-1K total) and get an athlon 64 (socket 939)

    look on pricewatch. if you don't want to fuck around getting parts from different compagny, get 'em from newegg.com

        It looks like a nice machine at a nice price but it is not really high-end..

              512mb ram isn't high end, and you want a 74gig raptor sata drive.

                That's a nice price, but if that's not a "high end" computer in my mind.
