Ok, my family is upgrading our Desktop PC. As resident nerd, I was nominated for the task, the bad news is I'm not a computer nerd, and as such, don't know what I'm doing. I would like to build a respectible rig, and not hurt our wallets too much (under a grand definately, under 700 is the ideal) Below is a brief list of specs for my current PC. I know I will need to upgrade a lot, but if at all possible, I'd like to salvage some parts to help with the cost...
SONY VAIO PCV-RS 410 running Windows XP home edition on an Intel Pentium 4 processor 2.66 GHz with 504Mb RAM
120 Gb Hard Drive (it's split, 20 Gb on C Drive, 100 on D) and I have a 200 Gb Maxtor hard drive (xmas present, still in the box) and 300 Gb external hard drive
SONY DM-HX93 19" Screen
845GV Intel Extreme Graphics
Intel 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV Graphics Controler
256 PC-2100 DDR
2 i.LINK S400 ports an 4 USB 2.0 ports
CD-ROM drive and DVD+-RW/CD-RW drive
I'm new at building PC's, so don't make it too hard, good luck!
