hi

my first post?

umm.. boleh kata saya noob la.. I have NULL experience in building my own PC. only what i dream to do. I have followed tech news since 13yrs old(now 16+). I've seen alot. Read alot. Currently, if i wanna build a budget PC, I know

i wish for 8200. but intel 2140 is nice. ;
I wish for a HD3870. But HD3850 good enough la. Would HD3650 be best performance/price ratio? then i want that ;
for PSU, i have no target. I have no idea;

Look at my current home PC:

OS: Windows XP Pro SP2
Proc: Pentium D 925 3.0
Ram: kingston 1024MB
PSU: dunno what brand. 450W
Graphics: HIS X1050 512MB

and some other things i know:
A4 Tech Super Slim Keyboard
A4Tech mouse
BenQ T705 monitor
defect Tsunami Shadow Series XX-117AA Twin Speakers with Subwoofer

Ok, now for my question. Please just recommend a PSU for my dream great budget PC. Do i need 500W for 3850?

hmm, what you want from your dream PC ?
gaming? or graphic designing? or video rendering?
or ALL OF THE ABOVE ???

if you wants all... i think you better dont get a E2140, it is surely not good enough.
it might last you for 6 month and you will definitely want to change to a better ones.

at lease get a E4xxx series
and a XFX GeForce 8600GT cheaper than the HD3850 but perform as fast as it...
Corsair XMS2 Twin 2x 2048-6400C5 DHX shall do the trick... it only cost approx RM200
as of for the PSU, get a Cooler Master Real Power 450W if you are not planning to SLi or crossfire...

i'm also very concern about the "performance over price over durability ratio"
thats why i'm getting a
GA-EP35-DS3
C2D E8200
XMS2 Twin 2x DHX
Winfast 8600GT
Cooler Master Extreme Power 450W
total cost RM1800 (quite cheap le)

all item are able to last me for 4 years or maybe even more...

budget ma... corsair is good enough... others just over my budget
E2140 is not enough for him to last for a year... get a E4xxx series instead

i use a E8200 coz i'm multitasking... doing some video rendering, graphic designing and stuffs...

i built my PC to last long, for approx 4 to 5 years at lease
