    No, but then again, I am not the one asking for help here. If I was, I would make sure that my post was legible. Yours wasn't.

    Man some English teachers can be boring, but I have had some REALLY COOL English teachers. Anyway did you decide to build your own PC? The E6420 doesn't really give you much of a performance boost BTW. The E6400 will overclock further so it negates the performance gains with the E6420.

    I'll give you some good tips on trolling, but it will cost you. :) Your English is just fine.

    It covers posting false information, all the way up to tricking people into viewing disgusting pictures. It's basically the first thing that'll get you banned from any forum!

    Why does GrandPa want to give me tips on trolling? Did I post false information?

    If you don't want my help, then help yourself, but have a look at these before you write me off for advising you to make more effort with your posts:
    X2 3800+ Dual core $66 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103735
    1GB Corsair XMS2 PC6400 $67
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145566
    200GB Samsung HDD $56
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152022&Tpk=200GB+Spinpoint
    EVGA NVidia 7600GT $107
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130073
    Hiper 480W PSU $40

    That comes to $510 plus a wee bit for delivery. I can't promise it'll play everything at high settings, but it will definitely be able to play any current game to some degree.

    What do you think on Corsair vs Crucial Ballistix tracers?

    They are a high performance memory from Crucial, and I'm asking because you suggested memory and I was wondering how that stacked up against Corsiar.

    I know Ballistix is Crucial's RAM, not heard of tracers before. In all honesty though, most people seem to use Corsair, there must be a reason for that.

    Over clocking is runing your components over what intel set them as. For example a E6400 is clocked at 2.13 GHz, you can crank that upto 3.2 ghz. That would be running it over the stock clock speed. Thats overclocking. If you don't plan on over clocking I suggest you go buy yourself a PC. The rebates make it worth it.

    That's debatable, unless it's a low end system (in which case I agree), you can usually get it done cheaper with self-builds even if you're not an overclocker.

    As for the links, do you want more choices?
    Feel free to choose whichever case you like, that's just an example one that fits the budget.

    This isn't exactly high end. I mean if you are looking under 600, I think it would be better with a PC from Circuit City, but they do throw more junk on you like a new monitor and printer. If you don't need all that new stuff, and are willing to use your old stuff you can save some money. In that case I suggest you build it yourself, that would give you more control over what you put in it and you can later on overclock.
