Possible budget gaming PC build?

I picked up an ASUS wireless card, and I am pleased.

Was it a simple slot-into-the-motherboard type card? If you know what i mean...

And to answer mickey megabyte, 'my location precludes such an option' :)

Thanks so far, I have finalised all the stuff needed but remembered that I will need something like a wireless network card. Any suggestions?

Any cheap wireless PCI card would do

How about an Asus PCI-G31 Wireless 11b/g?

Good enough. You probably won't find any benefit from using a Wireless n anyway

Yeah, my router doesn't do Wireless n, so g should be alright.

You're not considering this for gaming are you? There's no location you can't string CAT5 to...

No, I probably won't be doing online gaming too much. This will just be for internet browsing and stuff. I will drag a cable out to my computer if I was to do online gaming.

Yup, that one looks good. I don't like getting "any old ______," as brand name X stands behind their product, while "china brand 4,000,000" probably won't as much.

I'd like to say a huge thanks to all people who helped out in the deciding of what to use. I just got the parts and finished building it today and it was a success! Everything went smoothly!

Thanks everyone!!!
