I know there's enough room, but I would prefer to not upgrade my power supply. If necessary, I will.

Is it possible to re-enable the intergrated video chipset on my motherboard so I can have a triple monitor setup. Because I read once an actual card was put in, the chipset disables.

You're not going to go far with a low-quality Dell 300W PSU, just saying.

If your BIOS has a gay option to disable it, or just keep on the Onboard, make it select AUTO or Enabled.

Would that disable my video card though?
Thing is, I seen a bunch of small LCD's in our local classifieds. I could easily get one for 40 bucks

i3-2120

or

fx-4100

For a low end gaming build, which.

The fx-4100 has great overclocking potential, however this is going to be the AMD vs intel debate. I, personally, would go for the FX :P

Purely because I go by this site and as you can see the FX is slightly higher, but at almost a negligible difference, either would do.

I wasn't planning on OCing.

Which one is cheaper for you? They both have very similar performance.

[Rusty]

i3 is about £5 cheaper.

Ethan, I am picking out parts that I intend on buying and I'm stuck in picking my GPU. I want a card with a potential max price of $500. I looked at the XFX Double D Black Edition HD7950 OC and saw it has really solid performance to price against the GTX580. But then I saw that in only about a month and a bit that NVIDIA was releasing it's next generation which looks like it's going to potentially woop AMD's ass by being almost 2x more powerful. I don't know what the NVIDIA cards price range will be but I want to know if you think I should buy my other parts and wait for the NVIDIA card or should I just buy the 7950.

I HOPE TO GOD THIS ISN'T A TYPO
