I am trying to build my own computer and I am interested in your opinions on what I have so far right now. I need your opinions, this is what I am going to build. I know everything is compatible and all, and I am thinking about building the actual machine instead of making this one of my "PC Sheets" which is a sheet that I make for people to download or look at to build the actual PC with the detailed parts.
Anyway, here is mines and I need your opinions on it, please:

TOTAL: $1710.62

The general use of the computer will be for simple watching and burning DVD's and CD's as well as online gaming. I can build this actual machine if you'd like. I usually charge $50 per hour for constructing the computer with a period span of 2 days and an average of 8 hours to put the computer together. Get at me if you'd like me to build this for you, send me a PM for details.

I see two changes I would make...
You dont need XP Pro...
This is not a business machine and Pro will not give any preformance improvement... So save some money there.
$1800 to watch and burn DVD's and you are using a cheapie $49 Burner...
Add a DVD player and a better DVD Burner...
The seperate player will keep the run time hours off the burner and help it last longer.
NO real price change

I added that DVD player as a temporary position so I apologize if you thought it was going to be an actual DVD burner in this computer. Anyway, moving on, let's see...... I am going to add an DVD burner that is quicker then that and I am trying to look for some other things though for the computer. What else would be good to add to it everybody.

on second glance forget win xp pro and go for home. either that or install a 64 bit win o/s. there wont be much of a price difference but you'll soon see its advantages especially as you are looking on a 64 bit processor.
