Thats cheap!

You know if in Orlando I can buy PC hardware as cheap?

I will go there in july.

Here in Brazil, a similar configuration cost more than the double of that

that's about as powerfull as my 18 month old com... which was 3x the price (oh decreasing values!)

you didn't include case, cooling, mouse, keyboard price though

He does have a case listed...that Rosewill case is absolutely the best case you can buy for the money. Comes with 2-3 fans (depending on model) and no extra cooling is needed.

It completely shits over something like the Antec 300 mid tower which is more expensive.

oh yeah didn't look at the links, just the text list, my bad :p

not needed

Well he obviously did since he forgot to mention that he is using an old one from another PC

I still can't get over how cheap hardware is in the US compared to here...

I did this few months ago for one of those Zotac barebones, CD-less mini machines... It was kinda fun. If Windows 8 wants to be all badass, they should just pack a USB key with the software in the retail box.

Great build, components are so cheap in America =(.

I've been wondering... I want to build a gaming PC that has a small-ish case. Perhaps similar in size to the original X360 or PS3, I would love to find a case like that. Most of the ones I've seen that small won't fit the video card, though, so I'm left to wonder if there is anything large enough to house an effective gaming PC build and have it be fairly compact.

That'd be so cool. =]
