this is what i'm thinking
CPU:
Canada Computers - CPU > Desktop Intel Processors : Intel Pentium Dual Core E2180 Socket LGA775, 2.0 GHz, 800 MHz FSB, 1MB L2 Cache, 65nm (Retail Box) (BX80557E2180).
75$
HD:
Canada Computers - Hard Drives > Desktop Drives > 3.5" SATA Drives : Seagate Barracuda (ST3500320AS) 7200.11 SATA NCQ 3.0Gb/s 500GB 32MB Cache (OEM).
75$
RAM (x2):
Canada Computers - Memory > Desktop Memory > DDR2 1066 PC2-8500+ : OCZ (OCZ2P10664GK) DDR2 PC2-8500 1066 MHz Platinum Series 4GB(2x2048) Dual Channel Kit .
230$
MoBo:
Canada Computers - Motherboards > Socket LGA775/T : Asus P5QL-E Socket 775 Intel P43 + ICH10R Chipset Dual-Channel DDR2 1066/800/667MHz Gigabit LAN 8-channel High Definition Audio PCI Express 2.0 x16 Slots 6x SATA 3Gb/s 1600Mhz FSB .
120 $
i have a spare case, power supply and a DVD/CD w/rw
so i get a
2.0 duo core @ 8 gigs of ram and a 32mb/cache HD for 500 bucks.,
which i'm hoping can run without cooling fans (1 at most)
this will primarily be for Adobe Lightroom running on Vista 64.
