I adjusted your numbers for accuracy and err um relevance to a normal effective budget. You're not gonna stick a pair of GTX4xx cards into a $50 case!

I dont think I agree with this. I did lots of research and you can find a decent tower case with proper cooling for 100 bucks. Sure it won't be Antec but it will still do the job.

So you have case ~100

Power supply 100 bucks

mobo + basic Athlon quad core CPU - 250 (you really don't need I7)

Ram 4GB -70 bucks

I guess Wondows 7 is 100 bucks too...so like 650-700 bucks is more than enough to make a 3D capable machine...sans videocards, which I listed separatly.

Yeah you probably could do that. I would go for a Phenom II however due to the higher CPU load an X2 GPU setup causes.



Tease.
