Here ya go, it's attached in the PDF, I couldn't be arsed linking it.

It's the newegg cart, get Deathwish or Shike to find you some good audio gear for around $100, and that's your $900 spent.



Here

I don't care what anybody says about that CPU, I used it recently and it fucking flies.

Opps, I forgot the case, add $80 if you want the Thermaltake M9, or find something else you like that's cheaper. That diminishes your audio budget though.

I dont want anything big for sound just some cheap logitech stuff. For mice and keyboard I was thinking of getting a Razor mouse an keyboard for like 100 for both got to see how much I spend on the pc first. Let me look over that pc Ben and see how it is.

Ok that cpu is very good. I saw that one on a few recommendation of some other forums and it looks good. Take a look at this one I saw in a thread at maximumpc.

I can get a better dvd drive the one he posted doesnt really exist but thats ok.

That graphics card is good I was thinking of getting a 4870 or 4890 but that looks good. Also how do you think windows 7 RC is because I will be using that as a OS. I need to burn it though not sure what kind of blank dvd 's I need.

Those specs you posted above would make a great box too.

Mine does have a slightly bigger GFX card, and the keyboard and mouse isn't included in the other price you posted.

Or speakers.

Yeah very true Ben, you got a point. But there is no shipping there and I am doing that now with your specs and I dont want to know the shipping cost unless I do some on amazon and save on some shipping.

There ya go.

Let me know how you go with it, just remember that you'll need Windows 7 RC1 64bit.

The Vista 64Bit drivers work fine.

Also, If you want to pre-order Windows 7, MS are running a promo in the states only that you can pre-order for the next few weeks for half price which is a pretty good deal.

http://arstechnica.com/microsoft/new...-and-japan.ars

So you can add that to your machine list from Newegg, and get Windows 7 legit when it's released.

Yeah I downloaded it on my laptop just need to burn it with a dvd i am not sure what kind of dvd you need. Need to buy one is it dvd-r or dvd+r. it is only 3.09 gb so a 4.7gb disk should be good. I am also going over both those specs and picking and choosing see what I come up with. But thanks a lot for the help everyone so far.
