I recently upgraded my computer from a really crappy one(because it was non-existant) to a :

Asus A8N-E mobo
AMD Athlon 3200+ venice
leadtek geforce 6600 vanilla
1 gig corsair value select ram
onboard ac97 sound

It was about $500 -- all I could afford, but I am happy it runs SH3 fine on decent settings. got it from buyxg.com--DO NOT buy from them--they didn't get my order right and would not fix the mistake after I tried three times to call, had to get ram seperately because of it. anyways just curious

I got it here and there. (various outlets in Norway) I payed about 350$ for it, but I had the cabinet, hard drives, RAM etc from my old comp. (The graphics card was demo-used, but I got warranty, so what the heck. By the way, the XFX 7600 GS has lifetime warranty, hehe)

A good deal, this.

The only part of computers that is still expensive is RAM.
