Welcome to Sharky's. :) Please use search function and/or look at other people's threads as these types of questions come in daily and most people end up ignoring these unless there's something specific.
what is the link you sent me? it's not computer related. what link am i suppose to go to?
I didn't send you any links... I meant for you use the Search function... or just glance through the titles to see if any match...
Koskotas, at least say what you're going to do with the computer, i.e. gaming, desktop video, general purpose, home theatre PC, etc. If you're just doing word processing and web-browsing, almost any PC built new with any new parts will do that job just fine. If you want to play newer games or do desktop video, those are tasks that require more careful parts choices, and that's where some of us on here can give you some advice.Quote:

I like to use the Gaming PC Buyers Guide as a good Template.
The come in 3 versions.. Go to the Home Page and look on left side for the Links. Here's the Value PC Gaming Guide..

those guides are outdated by a year, and i find many of their selections to be in poor taste. just look at threads in the general hardware forum and you will see plenty of prospective builds in progress.
We need to know the main purpose for building the system please. Some idea of your budget too. Check out www.newegg.com, a great site to get parts.Quote:
