My roommate wants me to build him a computer for $750. He already has a 120gig hd, mouse and keyboard but I need to get everything else. Here is what I am thinking any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I second the idea of going with an e7200 and changing the HD to a 640gb (it's the sweet spot for price/performance/reliability right now.) At least if you're already planning to OC. If you aren't OCing, stick with the 8400.
For me at least clicking on the mb/case/video combo gets an error instead of showing what's in it and, most importantly, what type of motherboard you've got. Picking a good motherboard is immensely important, remember. ESPECIALLY if you're OCing.

And then use that money you saved to buy a real power supply, because that ThermalTake will shit itself inside out if you ask it to power a GTX260.
Can trade TF2 items or whatever else you're interested in. PM me.

That's probably too expensive, but you should be able to get a 640GB drive relatively cheap, too.
