eskro Wrote:well, you'll need an LGA775 motherboard,
and depending on the case u want,
u need to make sure your motherboard will fit in it!
also, since u have an ANTEC PSU,
those are ATX12V PSU's, so,
u need a case that supports it, and there's plenty

The Celeron E1500 CPUbenchmark is less than half the A6-3500 CPUbenchmark. The discrete HD6450 GPU is not better than HD6530D iGPU either. The HD6530D iGPU is capable of crossfire "AMD Radeon™ Dual Graphics" too.
$476

Now I need 2 of these devices to work with my Harmony 880 & 890 remote.I thought I saw it at Fry's Electronics, and you can search for it in your local Craigslist too. It's always tougher to find thing during holiday.

mobo --> ASUS P5G41T-M LX PLUS LGA775 $65
case --> Silverstone ML03B $60
gpu --> XFX HD6450 $30 after rebate
so far im at $155... what m i missing here?
