If you could tell me what all that would cost (Need to take this to the PC store, so they know what to build, I just want to know the price so I can make changes before I go) that would be great.
Thanks

prices widely vary from shop-to-shop, given what's on your list I wouldn't think that you'd really need to be told that; or that your best bet is ya know going to the website of the shop you're planning to purchase from.

seriously c'mon, a lil common sense helps avoid needing a post about something easily solved.

The website of the shop doesn't list their stock and prices. And all the parts are special ordered unless they have them, wich is rare. This is a small island.

Seattle, Washington state, iirc is neither an island or small. Lived there for a bit as does most of my family; besides there are such things as internet shops.. if you have the money either you have a credit card or you have a parent you can give the money too and purchase for you then have it delivered.

in any case, not everyone has the free-time to check things for you.. if your local doesn't give prices online then use those things you call legs and go down there yourself.

i'm certainly as hell not going to Seattle just to be helpful to a forum visitor.

Not the first time, eh? One would think you would've learned then by now.

And though you said no raid, most motherboards will come with raid anyway.

Find a US components store and find out yourself, I'd use Ebuyer, where I got my GFX card from, but I don't know if they have a US site.

As for google:

Also, I found a USA computer website for you at the same time, Google truly is of use when you try it.

After the PC Store told me the price for their low end PCs, I decided to just go with an XPS 410. Dual GeForce 7950s 512mb each, Intel Core 2 Duo 2.13GHz, 2GB of RAM, free 19" monitor, and a 100GB Hard Drive all for $1,864.

woh thats expensive! I'd say you're paying more for those graphics cards than anything else.

Heh, my only computer until I was 19 or so was the Apple IIE. So around the mid 90's I finally got a new pc, lol. My friends used to laugh at me for never being able to do the "cool" new windows stuff...

note: The reason being that that was the pc my dad bought... and the only one. He never upgraded.

edit2: I think my new pc was a Macintosh Color Classic. Somewhere around there...
