My in-laws HP desktop has gone out on them (on-board video) and rather than try to find parts to fix a very out-of-date PC they've asked me to put one together for them. I've built my last two, but it's been a few years & I'm not really up with what is out there now, so I need a little help piecing together one for them. Their only requirements are that it be no more than $550 and that it is capable of running online games such as World of Tanks, Wizards 101, etc In order to keep their cost down I've offered to give them a few spare parts I have to get started. Here is what I've got already. It's not much, but it may save them a few bucks. If any of it isn't worth keeping that's fine too::
- I'm going to install their old hard drive, A WD10EADS Western Digital 1 TB Caviar Green SATA Intellipower 32 MB Cache. I've tested it on my PC and it runs fine.
-COOLER MASTER Centurion 5 CAC-T05-UW ATX Mid case
- Coolmax APX-550 PSU
-Lite-on DVD burner & card reader from thei old PC
-Several case fans including a nice variable Thermaltake.
