<div align=justify>Monday, January 8, 2007<BR>Limited Cash but you need to upgrade your PC?<BR><BR>In an earlier post I talked about updating your RAM. What if you need a new PC bad but you have limited cash. The internet is chuck full of places you can buy components you need. One of the places I recommend is Newegg. One of the things you can do if you have little money is buy a barebones system and transfer your components like harddrive, CD-ROM, sound card, and video card if applicable. A typical barebones comes with motherboard, cpu, power supply, case, and possibly memory. What you purchase depends on your needs and money. Just shop around and get the best deal you can get for your money. Read reviews on different motherboards and their configurations. There are so many options its hard to cover it all in this article. You don't always have to buy from a PC manufacturer to get a good PC. You can put one together yourself or get a friend who is knowledgable to help you. I have priced quite a few configurations and you usually can get a case, motherboard, cpu, and power supply is around $300. Sometimes memory even comes with it. You can build a brand new PC for around $700 and that includes all new components. So you see its possible to build a PC for less than what manufacturer would charge for a brand new system. The only draw back is you don't get the warranty and tech support you would get from a PC manufacturer. You can also try out Tiger Direct they have barebones systems with everything you need.<BR><BR>As always I hope this information is helpful. Until next time have a nice day.<BR><BR>Tim<BR>Posted by Timothy Scheiman at 10:37 AM </div>
