New Build....$500AUD

[Mattyl110792]

Hey,

I'm looking to build a computer for a mate, who has a budget of AUD$500 ($389 USD)...i need a motherboard, CPU and RAM...i was wanting 1gb RAM, and preferably an ASUS or GIgabyte board....ive been looking and just can't make a decision, whatever i put the e6300 with, it just goes that $100 bucks over.....btw the motherboard needs to have onboard vga, or if you can make a gfx card fit to the budget, even better....Thanks in advance for any help

Matt

EDIT: I was thinking maybe the following...

You might want to take a look at that CPU. The Asus motherboard requires a CPU that has the Core architecture. The Pentium D is Netburst.
