All are from newegg, if you need to see any of the items specifically just search the item # in newegg.om
anyways, the total comes to 243$ and i know there isnt a hdd included, thats because the ones on newegg are all very expensive? nothing less then 80$ so i’ll obtain that from else where.
anyhow, im making this computer for brother’s office, and he needs like 5 of them so im trying to make sure everything is ok and reliable. the use of these computers are just general really, very basic, mostly internet browsing but with alot of tabs usually open and programs like office, pdf and maybe some organizing apps. nothing intense.. but i chose parts all for a reason. the cpu is perfect because it has built in graphics, amd 6000 hd something which is really good, it can take win7. i was going to go with a cheap motherboard and a am3 dual core athlon but the graphics on the motherboards were pretty gay so i chose that cpu with graphic card. ram, cheapest was like 15$ for 1gb, so i decided might as well give it 4gb for 24$, it be somewhat future proof..
and thats about it. it was suppose to be under 200$ but i dont see how it would be a decent pc. your thoughts ?

Good luck with that. HDD prices are through the roof cuz of the floods. They wont be going down until next year.

Nope, that PSU is crap, and not compatible. Your mobo requires a 24 pin, and that PSU only has a 20 pin.
I use Corsair PSU’s in my builds.

Oh yea, good deal on this PSU at Amazon, I say go with it man…
Rosewill’s PSUs are actually very decent but that unit is horrible.
Get this PSU.

Btw I would take a G620 over that CPU for office work any day of the week.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182075 i actually decided to go with this, since from newegg, i dont want separate shipping.. that seems good tho?
and eh, idk, celeron isnt all that to me.. but besides, this amd is clocked at 2.7 with much better graphics
your right, graphic isnt that important anyways and an lg1155 is much better and upgradable!
the 620 only worked with 1066 memory which is pretty low so i went with this:
ASRock H61M-VS LGA 1155 Intel H61 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
Item #: N82E16813157241
Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 2000 BX80623G840
Item #: N82E16819116398
and the rest with the component above (the list above with the amd processor n that motherboard)
this looks better?
