I'm wondering if this is a good deal and if I need anything else in the computer? With regards to the modem and wireless option, should I go with what I choose or go with the 56K modem which is what I have now? And what does the modem and wireless option have to do with the Network Interface Integrated 10/100 Ethernet???

Someone here advised me to have between 2.6 - 3.0 ghz but I'm not even sure what the above has and if its enough? Is that the 667MHz or is it just not showing on the final custome build?

Hopefully this all makes sense!!!

Thanks in advance for the help before I decide for sure what to do. rolleyes

AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual-Core Processor 4000+ runs at 2.6GHz which is plenty fast.
The 667MHz is the speed of the memory.
The video card is puny if you are playing games, get a NVIDIA GeForce with 256MB.
