yes i have checked it & my budget is below 10000 or price that is bare min

i need this pc for judebox & internet so that i can download stuff on this when i'm away from home by using remote desktop

u can get 15" crt monitor and p3 for about 7-8k. mouse + keyboard = about 500rs.get 5.1 creative inspire for just 3k!total amount = 9 k approx

PS. u can get P2 for even less.

thank bro,will it support win xp or win me?

AMD ATHLON 64 3200+ - 1815/-
ASUS M2N - MX SE - 2550/-
512 MB DDR2 - 690/-
80GB Segate HDD - 1800 /-
Cabby + SMPS - Rs. 1200/-
kbd+mouse = 500 /-
Lite on DVD RW - 1340 /-

9895/- + 395 ( 4% TAX ) = 10290 /-

you can remove the DVD RW and reduce the cost further.

I purchased the following recently

AMD sempron 3400+ (64 bit)
MSI K9MM-V Motherboard (video, 5.1 surround sound and lan onboard)
Combined Price - Rs. 3600
kingston 512 DDR2 RAM Price - Rs. 750
Other parts I reused from old system

I was surprised to find my new sempron twice as fast as my old P4 1.5

^^ thats a good VFM
