Hey guys.
Ok since im getting a 9800GT from a mate i need help deciding on what pc to buy.
Havnt been in the PC hardware section for a long time, so here goes nothing.
Intending to use it for gaming duh :p
All i need is the following.
PSU for the 9800GT
CPU (Quad core plz)
Board
Chip
Ram (i dunno if i shuould upgrade it somes cheap ram but it is 2gigs of DDR2 800)
I cant REALLY say a budget cause i dont even know myself

That's about it for my input, lol
