Neuro buddy this was put together thinking of cheapest price, having an upgrade path (possible quad later), and free shipping if possible. I know there are cheaper cpu's but I wanted the L3 cache cause I'm a tech slut and want the best for the low end. This rig will mainly just be something for the grandparents to learn on and for the younger grandkids to have something to do when they are over.

I do have a 12 year old cousing who loves xbox so I was thinking about eventually slapping either a 4770, 4850 or one of my 4870's in there so he can game a little on it. If I find a good price on a larger PSU I might use it on my 24/7 rig, slap my antec 650w true power in this one and maybe use the little one on a file server or something.
