Memory Apacer UNB pc2-5300 CL5 1x2GB
Power Supply Zeno Power 600W
Thanks for all the advice!
My budget increased by about Php3,000 now = $67

Considering the advice to OC and buy PSU, I've a question. If I'm going to OC my CPU, would the HSF that comes along w/ the CPU enough? Or should I buy a CPU cooler?

These are the CPU cooler available in our area
CoolerMaster V10, V8, Jet4, Hyper Tx3, Vortex Plus
Thermaltake Frio OCK
Antec25 H2O
Gigabyte G-Power Pro




Moreover, these are the only PSU available on our area.
Hec Cougar CM 500W, Rapter II, Raptor Green 500W
Civo Switching 500W
Thermaltake litepower 350w / 600W, TR2 W0379RU 500W / TR2 W0093RU 500W
Acbel CE2 500W
IMaster Pro 600W
Cougar RS 550W
Intex 600W ACCOPIA DUAL FAN POWER SUPPLY
Across ATX 500W
FSP Supersonic 500W
Heatpipe Cooled 500W


Or should I really be looking for any of these
Antec VP-450 450W
FSP HEXA 500w
Corsair CX430 V2
XFX Core Edition Pro 450W
Antec NeoEco 520W


NOTE:
1) I've created a specific thread for this. You might wanna reply on this thread instead.
2) If none of the listed items above are worth to buy that would fit my need. I'm actually just thinking to go w/ my original option. Just buy 5670, 5570, or GT440 and leave other parts as it is (No OC'ing of CPU, no replacing of PSU)

Thank you :)
