Toke pretty much hit the best possible build you can get for the money. If you want to shave some money you could always go to a 4300 but I wouldn't really recommend it unless you really need the money saved. And Evil I'm not letting you buy some prebuilt garbage >:< Winky Winky

If I was to buy that PC Toke showed me, how long would it take to build/how complicated is it? Also do all the pieces come at the same time?

If all parts are ordered from Newegg or Amazon they'll arrive around the same time. However my case came in about two days before my components did. And building is actually easier than people make it out to be, it will require some time to be dedicated, anywhere between one to two hours. In regards to the actual building there are plenty of videos on YouTube that will explain it and even show you how to do it.

The best way I can explain it is like this, it's almost like building legos, if you follow the instructions you can take all the pieces and make a castle. In this case, all the parts and turn it into a PC. All in all it's pretty much plug and play, just gotta make sure you ground yourself out by touching your case when you move around so you don't fry your parts with static electricity. :p

Damn dude, that's a nice build for $500. He could probably drop the cd/dvd drive though. The only reason why I got a cd/dvd drive was because of the fact I had some older games that were cd/dvds. :p
