custom pc did a similar thing last month decent gaming pc for under £600 switch out the gfx in a couple of weeks and put an 8600 in there and dx10 for peanuts
I wonder how they settled on the RAM and PSU... :p

thats probably most of the cost right there!!!!
change the case to a CM centurion 532 (the front bar one)
RAM to some other stuff
8800gts to an X1950 pro or 7900 series card or 8600gts soon
loads of cash saved :D
In this article, you are looking at the cost in contrast to a boutique or prebuilt PC. Read the title and the information. This is simply a guide on how to select components, not a super cheap budget build guide. And, anyone reading this should realize that none of it is etched in stone. The reader can change any component based a variety of reasons such as brand loyalty, budget, performance, OCing, etc. Our readers ask for this type of information daily at our home forum which is why it was written.Quote:
