Okay, if I went with something like this, how well would it run on something that needs:
* AMD Athlon 64 3000 or Intel CoreDuo 4000
* 1GB RAM
* Graphic Card GeForce 6600 or ATI Radeon X1550 256 MB
* Sound Card Sound Blaster Audigy
* DirectX 9
* 16x DVD or 32x CD-ROM
* 18 Gb free space on hard disk
* Broadband link with uplink 256kbps, downlink 1024kbps
Cause to be honest, I dont know jack shit about computers. But I do plan on building myself one. Also, is there a specific case I would have to buy to fit all of that? Or would I be able to scrap my old case. Really really wanna build a new pc this summer and don't wanna spend over 1,000 if I don't have to. Mind you, I did remove the hard drives and DVD burner from your list as I will just reuse what I already have.
