I've recently got accepted into a college and I am just gandering around for some PC parts to get an idea of what I want for college come July. I am getting into gaming and I know you need a real nice setup to run them, but I also need a nice application pc to run design programs like dreamweaver and photoshop etc all at the same time.
Can anyone help me build one that will be upgradeable for the future and last quite a few years down the road? Will PCI-Express take over quickly? What about 64 bit?
I currently have an ASUS A7n8x-x motherboard with a radeon 9600SE agp 8x video card. Basic onboard nforce sound with 1 512 pc 3200 RAM and 2 40 gig hd's. No floppy and just a cd rom.
It's real basic. But I want to know, what I can look to save up for for when I go to college. I'll answer any questions that will help me build a ECONOMICAL computer
