Well I need a new computer and I was thinking of using most of the old parts from my current rig ant transplanting them to my new one. The HDD, DVD drive and the PSU. So with that in mind could you guys please give me a parts list of every thing else minus what i just stated. My budget is a maximum of $500 Canadian, a GFX card is not overly important I can always ask for one for xmas. Thanks in advance for the help

List what your current stuff is, fully. Impossible to build a rig on no info about the PSU for example.

some bits may not work with other stuff, compatability is a bitch in computers, but it's also essential otherwise your brand new shit will just be sat there like a paperweight.

Your best Choices are Newegg.ca and CanadaComputers.com (If your in Ontario) They both have equally competitive pricing.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

Intel is the way to go at the moment.

I recommend what Freezer suggested.

If you also want a case, put the leftover $90 on that.
