Well I had a good big tower with 7 slots I liked but it was only 500 cpu. I found a cheap motherboard with a 1 Gig CPU and used that, then went from 20 Gig to 100 Gig hard drive, which I found on e-bay. Then added DVD burner, surround sound and video software. It works pretty good and doesn't crash. Depends on what you want your computer to do. I suggest for you newer motherboard, (mobo) like Asus with 2.4 or higher cpu. Find a friend who fools with computers and tinker with it. Much cheaper than buying a new one, usually. Look on e-bay for the parts.

Hello,
Rebuild it into what? A Cray? Seriously, you need to look at the mechanical aspects of what you have. Most "Branded" computers have unique physical componets which make it difficult to go down the upgrade path later on. If you are not comfortable with doing this yourself take it to your local small computer retailer. They have the expertise to assist you in determining what componets you can replace without damaging the system or costing you money in parts that you can't return. Good Luck,
Ted Maciag

You're going to get a lot of answers.
There's too many possibilities. Think about what you're going to do with it, chances are it's probably a good idea to buy a Dell or something similar. Building your own will be fun but without some knowledge you won't match the components well and the performance will be garbage. Don't forget evey mainstream machine comes with technical support.

I carefully priced all the components to build a new computer and it is not like it was 3 or four years ago. I found I could buy a new one with what I wanted much cheaper. You may need to start from the case with power supply inward.

Hey, unless you just want to do the work and replace all the guts of your computer, go buy one. The price on new machines is way down. Just decide what you want in a new computer and go price it out.
My brother built my machine four years ago, state of the art, all high tech stuff and now, to upgrade it would cost more than a new machine.

chances are that you can buy a "New" one cheaper than you can upgrade the one you now have
