First, check to see if the case and PS are proprietary. Many brands are like that.  That setup cannot be reused if it is proprietary. BTDTGTTS. I use GENERIC cases now when I build a PC. The Power Supply should handle 350 Watts or better. \n\nIf it is not proprietary, it should handle an ATX form factor motherboard. They come in a MICRO factor as well. Then invest in a GOOD motherboard that is upgradeable to Dual or even Quad Core microprocessors. 4 or more RAM slots that handle DDR2 ram.\n\nI went with a Tforce 550 MB because I am a cheap person and I don't need the latest and greatest......

You may actually be able to find a case that's similar to the G5 case for a pc. I've seen a few of these, they call them all-in-one pcs. Or, at least, if you can't find an empty case, you might be able to find a diagram of what's inside, see how they put it together.

Get a dual core CPU\nI don't like the case\nI don't like the power supply\n\nGo to this forum to get some great help and advice on your build before plunking down the $$$

the computer you build yourself is always the best one.  other then that its mostly personal preference.  All the major components except maybe the mother board are the same.

When you find your best deals, list them all and show them to a computer knowledgable person at a computer shop (hopefully where you are buying some stuff from - I would recommend the case, because then you can always go back there and ask how to hook something up and they should be familiar with it) and ask what they think and if everything is compatible. They should offer suggestions or let you know that you are doing good. If they don't, go to another one.

There really is no "good" PC's because it all depends on what you do with them.\n\nAnd the Dell Demension series has quite a range in years now, so it would be hard to answer your question depending on how old the computers are\n\nBut Dell makes so pretty powerful PC's and any brand new PC these days are quite nice for their price

Hmm.. It looks good, expecially if you want to do many things with it. You should ask if they offer a 7200RPM hard drive instead of a 5400RPM other then that the specs seemed to be fine. \n\nAbout the 2 year warntee worth the investment. Computers somehow tend to break after the first year. Protect your investment. 3 years they charge way to much.

Buy the most that you can afford.  I would make sure that the computer has at least 512mb memory, 2ghz processor, 128mb video card and 160gb harddrive.

All you have to do is find out what size motherboard your computer uses.  I'm assuming that particular model has a MicroATX board; with that, you can pretty much buy any case you want since most case manufacturers have the mATX holes there for you.  Be wary of other things like case-specific cooling and cable length...you might need to replace that stuff.

Don't buy eMachine because the components inside are cheap so not reliable. (and that's why they're selling cheap)\n\nI built my own so can't recommend any brands to you.

ASUS P4P800-E Deluxe. It is a good board. It runs around $120. I have had excellent luck with Hitachi hard drives and they have excellent performance. 400GB Hitachi will run about $175.

Use an existing computer case...and customize it.\n\nI have several with custom paint jobs.  The insides can be removed and upgraded because it is a standard size.
