Pictured to the left is the case and 450 watt power supply...........

So, I have ordered all the parts.....


Well, I have shopped around for a bit. I scoured Craigslist, Ebay, Newegg, Tiger Direct and the local Staples for the parts. My original goal was to build a Quad Core computer for under $200, I think I am going to be really close. If I can find a good and cheap video card I will be good to go!


Today I just received the processor and motherboard. Now I am just waiting for the ATX case and I will be ready to assemble the pieces
