i must say i agree , when building a budget comp i always go for a mobo cwheere you can add a better cpu later

right heres what i got

Motherboard : Asus P5VD2-X Socket 775 Core 2 Duo VIA PT890 VT8237A DDR2 onboard Audio ATX

Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E6320 (1.86Ghz) Socket 775 FSB1066 4MB Cache Retail Boxed Processor

RAM: Kingston 2GB KIT (2X1GB) DDR2 667MHz/PC2-5300 CL5 Non Ecc 1.8V

Graphics: MSI NX7300LE-TD256E 256MB DDR2 DVI TV Out PCI-E Graphics Card

well thats the basics and a cheap 400W PSU that be enough ?

what you think ??

i know the graphics card is terrible but as i said its only purpose from onboard is dual screen NOT GAMING SO...

looks good , and yeah 400w should be good enough for it but if you are plnning on upgrading it later with better cpu and graphics , maybe it would be better to invest in a higher power psu to start with
