About $170 before shipping. The processor and mobo are a combo, you can see it on the mobo page.

Ok...

I think Im just going to start a new thread casue this one sucks :(

Don't go intel unless you get Core Duo or better. AMD all the way elsewhere. You'll want minimum 1 gig of ram (Corsair or the likes). 512 really just BARELY cuts it these days.

AGP is totally dead. Don't get a board without PCI express. Period.

trust me i love pc's i build my own and tigerdirect sucks..they first are bs on their rebates and celeron sucks..dont waste your money..tigerdirect tries to screw you over

by Ryan from Ohio » Wed Jan 31, 2007 7:53 pm

Well I guess it doesnt matter as I cant find the credit card info I had wrote down to buy it anyhow...

:(

Looks like a good deal too... I figure another $200ish and I could be rolling with it...

by Ryan from Ohio » Wed Jan 31, 2007 7:49 pm

should, same pin set

I think someone else should chime in on it, I'm not too up-to-date on motherboards etc.

Will the processor you want, work with this motherboard?

by Ryan from Ohio » Wed Jan 31, 2007 7:45 pm

minus memory, hard drive and GFX card.

Ya Im not to hot on the Celeron, but for $100 Im not sure if better can be had.

Im digging the case hardcore... Like it.

Im trying to build a pc on the cheap, want the dual core intel... Just thinking I could buy this as Im saving like $30ish or so by the package and buy the processor I want also.

I got about 400-500 to play with... But can only spend about $200 right at the second...
