Hello, would anyone want to build me a newegg pc (links please, thx) that is under 400$. The PC will most likely be resold. Thanks guys. A semi-nice case would be nice (no beige crap) Thanks in advance.....

Onboard graphics...
Kinda yucky, but depending on what you want to do, it'll suffice. |

it has onboard graphics, the 3000+ is more expensive than the sempron 3100+, to be able to afford a graphics card you would have to go althe way down to a xp2200+/sempron 2400+ and the 5200 is not that great of a card to begin with, if you just want to get away from onboard graphics to get a few cpu cycles back go with the cheapest card you can find even if its a $10 8mb card...to be able to game decently you will need to increase the budget | |

Well....the graphics card can't be on-board...since that REALLY sucks...say I got a ati9600 (regular) in there....what do you think it would go for on ebay..... http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...164-023&depa=1
(66$) so that would take me to about $450....do you think i could get about $600+ for it? | |
