Techies needed! Buying new components from Newegg

[sn!p3r]

Yeah, you will need a new motherboard if you want all the goodies that were posted.

Yeah i googled the specs for the MoBo and it looks like an old one but i am no expert (my wife builds them i just help). Here's the link to the specs on it so someone can look it over and make some suggestions. Remeber he said he is on a $200 budget.

Just go play the game and have fun dammit.

all in all the conclusion is that disco doesn't need antagonist factions, it doesn't need phantoms, it doesn't need nomads, it doesn't need coalition and it doesn't need many other things, no AIs, the game is hijacked by morons to confuse the game with their dickwaving generic competition games mixed up with troll-of-the-day.

Any more advice?:(

Hmm, where am I going to scrounge that bit more money...

EDIT: Do the motherboards on Newegg.com come WITH a videocard? If so, I won't really need to spend $52 on a new card. Then I can fork out for other components.

Unless it specifies that it comes with a video card or onboard video then no it doesn't.
Also havin dealt with Tiger Direct i can say i have never been unhappy with anything bought from them.

All right, I've had another look around newegg and found some new parts and managed to squeeze some extra power for the buck, I hope.

Here are the parts:

• BIOSTAR GF8100 M2+ SE AM2+/AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 8100 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail - Link
  
• HEC HP400D RETAIL 400W ATX12V Power Supply - Link
  
• Crucial 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Retail - Link
  
• AMD Athlon X2 4450e 2.3GHz 1MB L2 Cache Socket AM2 45W 65nm Dual-Core Processor - Retail - Link
  

This adds up to $187.96.

I dropped the 512mb video card because there is a NVIDIA GeForce 8100 included on the motherboard, and from what I gather, its a beast, I hope anyway.

But a major setback has just been found out, newegg.com doesn't ship overseas:( I may either have to order these parts from other companies or get a overseas shipping company to deliver them.

Are these parts compatible with each other?:rtfm:
