New PC specs
After going over
j4m573r's glorious new/upgrade PC thread on FO and trying to follow it to the letter, I've finally put together a new parts list for what I need.
And of course it's from NewEgg. Duh.
$1,415 plus shipping, not counting the 2 $40 mail-in rebates I'd get on the memory. I've already got a brand new optical drive and a sufficiently good flat-screen monitor, so I don't need those. Getting a comparable PC from Dell would cost me $1,983. Home-brew is always better. :)
Of course, I'm not actually buying anything. I don't have the money, and
the_z has nixed the idea of getting a NewEgg account (we have other accounts to pay off first). Maybe by Christmas, or possibly even my birthday, though.
