| How do you spend your money? How much are you willing to spend by components in your rig? The $ is just an example; I am more interesting in the percentage relative to total cost of the system.

| I knew I forgot something, but the percentages wouldn't be right anymore. I bought my disk two years ago for about 150 Euro |

| My pc, some pieces are a few years old. other are rather new, but I took the price I payed them. Actually this price is a lot higher then I expected. And I didn't even calculated my printer, screens, scanner etc... with it I don't think I gonna spend that much money on a new pc. My next upgrade will be graka, PSU, mobo and CPU. So I think €1800 is way to much for spending on that upgrade |

| The reason HDD is not there is because more than ONE could be added. Second thought I should have it listed. I guess what I am trying to find out if my assumption is correct; people are unwilling to pay for high priced processor; Unwilling to pay high price for- 1) Processor 2) Power Supply 3) Case 4) Hard drive More willing to pay high price for- 1) Video card 2) Memory

| only thing I'm unwilling to spend too much money on is a graka. If it's possible I try to keep my ti4200 for another year. But when I gonna do an upgrade I going to change to PCI-e and I need a new graka. Prolly a mid-range card |

| Never going to spend more then 180€ on a cpu again. I always take a low budget cpu with good oc capacibility. The rest of the money goes to a graca, about 250-300€. One thing I didn't spend money on is a keyboard EDIT : how do you do the percentage in excel ? ==> NVM
