Just as an example of a 0-500 machine i put this together for you.

Since i deal in DFI,AMD and MSI it is actualy a pretty sweet setup.

DFI Lanparty UT nF3 250Gb Socket 754 122.99
AMD Sempron 3000+ 64Bit 1.8Ghz Socket 754 99.99
Kingston ValueRAM PC3200 DDR400 2 x 512MB 184-pin DIMM 125.99
MSI MS Starforce FX 5200 128 MB DDR AGP 8x 59.99
Amazing ATX Middle Tower Case w 400watt Power Supply 30.00
Western Digital 80 GB SATA Hard Drive Free
DVD ROM Drive FREE

Total Comes to 504.80 Assembled

If you want to make it a bit cheaper still you can drop down to 512 of ram for 60.00 and you could save a little more by running the onboard video chipset instead of an addon card but then the display is taking memory away from the system and drasticly reduces performance.

Shipping is extra of course, unfortunately im out of copies of windows xp home so i can't offer it BUT 129.99 gets you the SP2 version at walmart. You can load any OS you want on it. WHY ARE THE HDD AND DVD ROM FREE YOU ASK? Cause I bulk buy them and I have 20 of each in stock and its a good hook if your giving them away.

Now this aint gonna be no gaming monster but it i'll do just about anything you want it to do.

Thats about it, If your looking for a complete system (ie tower, monitor, keyboard, mouse) your gonna be in the basement for performance.

Maby you should post what you want and we can work something out!
