Trying to build a cheap computer
I'm kind of low on the budget and have $300-400 to spend. The system I need wouldn't require any intensive graphics or anything like that. Just things like using word processing applications, browsing the internet, e.t.c...Anyway, below is what I've come up with so far. Any suggestions as to what else I need to add, remove or replace on this system would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
