It comes with ATX midtower case with 450W power supply, AM3-supporting motherboard (onboard ATI Radeon HD 4200 + HDMI), Athlon II X2 240 (2.8GHz) cpu, and 2GB (2 x 1GB)DDR2 800 (PC2 6400)ram. Just add CPU cooler fan, HDD, ODD, OS, mouse, keyboard and monitor to build the full set.
DDR3 is about 40% slower than the OCZ AM2 Special memory if you can find it. It handles page files twice the size of DDR3. I did buy 16 sticks when OCZ had their $50 rebate on 8gb. Figured to be $10/gb.

This isn't a bad deal at all, considering the case and power supply are included. Free shipping. For me the only two extra parts needed are a SATA drive and a CPU fan. I do have a concern, my video card is an X1550. It takes a minimum 450 power supply. Taking a chance this will be able to carry it.

No optical drive you got to add that, I am pricing it so far I was at $201, not it's $245.47. To bad the CPU is OEM forces you to get the fan and grease cooling. DDR3 seems cheaper than DDR2. This is only 2GB deal.
I got new retail box AMD X4 630 and Asus M4A785TD-M EVO Socket AM3 Micro ATX Motherboard with AMD 785G integrated graphics chipset, let me what kind of case I have new

Just bought 750G hard + color printer at only $65 from Newegg (linky). Canon printer for resell can be around $30~$40, then finally get a decent 750G for $25~$35, Hooray!

The sad thing is that zxcvb went back and edited this post and I still have no idea what the heck he is trying to say.

Figured to be $10/gb. Page file size is related to the total amount of RAM installed into the system. It has nothing to do with whether or not that RAM is DDR2 or DDR3.
