So here I go these next two months in the process of building my brother a computer for Christmas.  He has an old Dell that was given to me for a graduation gift and the thing is about ready to break down.  How it has survived 6 years I don't know, maybe that was when Dell actually made some competent computer systems compared to the trash systems they have these days.  So here's what I am putting in it for him:

-  Computer Case - (Already got this)
-  160GB Samsung HD - (Already got this)
-  ASUS M2N-E SLI AM2 NVIDIA nForce 500 SLI MCP ATX AMD Motherboard - ($88.99)
-  AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ Windsor 2.4GHz 2 x 512KB L2 Cache Socket AM2 65W Processor - ($87.99)
-  Patriot Extreme Performance 1GB (2 x 512MB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - ($45.99)
-  EVGA 256-P2-N751-TR GeForce 8600GT 256MB 128-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 SLI Supported Video Card - ($109.99)
-  Creative Sound Blaster Audigy SE SB0570LPVP 5.1 Channels 24-bit 96KHz PCI Interface Low-Profile Sound Card  - ($26.99)

So before taxes, I come out to a grand total of $359.95
