I am interested in building a moderate 32-bit gaming system that I can dual boot RedHat and Vista Home Premium and surf the Web for under US$500 (is this price unrealistically low?). This price excludes monitor, mouse and keyboard of course.
My main priority for this system is to beable to dual boot the latest Redhat and Vista without any performance lags.
As for gaming, Id like to beable to play games like Company of Heroes which has the following system requirements:
- 2.0 Ghz Intel Pentium iv or similar (3.0 Ghz is recommended)
- DirectX 9.0c video and sound cards
- 256MB NVIDIA GeForce6800 or better
- 1GB RAM is recommended (I prefer 2GB)
