I need a PC build, $300 or less. This won't be for gaming or anything like that, just something that boots quick and does operations quick. (Needs to handle XP) We're using Win98 on some computers here. No OS/Monitor/mouse/keyboard, tower only HD doesn't need to be massive either, we store all our data on our server, so even a 50GB HD would be fine.. NewEgg is fine since I'm in the US.

Let's see what you can come up with! Smile

Are you tied down only to Newegg? Frys has awesome RAM deals sometimes.
Do you have to pay for tax (are you living in the states Newegg has distributors in)?

I already have my build ready, just need you to answer those questions so I can tweak it.
