New Computer o.o

So, picking out a computer takes ALOT of time for me. There is actually a decently complicated web of aspects to consider when you are trying to meet a budget, and still have everything work with each other.

I have also had a few people ask me to pick out and build a computer for them, so maybe this can help you in your decisions as well.

Oh, and I had to buy this fan splitter after the fact, as the motherboard didn’t have enough slots http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=25413

SO basically, i wasted a ton of money on the case, but that was to make sure Laura was happy enough with it to be in the living room, brushed aluminum looks pretty cool too.

There is no monitor here, as I am going to be using my TV, and there is no mouse or keyboard, as I got a nice wireless set from a garage sale.

The hard drive is only 60GB, but its made to be fast, not for space , (I have the 2Terra external drive for that)
