I reused my case, hard drive, monitor, cd drives and such. If you don't have those things to work with expect to spend more money of course. But $900 for this computer was a bargain.

I always have too many computers but I haven't built one in a while. I would like to build another one pretty soon but I'm not up on the hardware. I haven't built an AMD 64 yet, last one was Socket A.
What MB did you buy? Is it clear which AMD 64 socket will be developed the furthest into the future?
