If I could get this PC for $350, would it be a good start?

Thinking about going to pick this up if anything mostly for the parts. Might use it until I am ready to upgrade. I would like a better processor and vid card. Other than that I think I come out cheaper buying this just for the case, HD, ram, etc.

Opinions?

I didn't think so. He's asking $450 but is negotiable. I am going to call in a bit and if I can get it down to $350 I may go run grab it.

Even at $450, it's not bad.

Doing some math and even if I had to buy a new motherboard to support a different CPU then I still come out ahead even after buying a better GFX card vs buying all the other parts separately.

$450 is not bad. $400 would be a good deal for you both.


$350 would be great

2008 wants their GPU back.

None the less not a bad build for the price. I love Cooler Master cases, I own one of those HAF without lights.

350 and then turn around and drop 150 on a decent GPU. You are good to go from there.

I figure that's where he wants to be but I am going to shoot for $350 as soon as I hear back from him.

Sort of what I was thinking.
