Re: Very first build need little help

Nice build my only thoughts are this for a motherboard http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128059

And this for a hard drive

Also i will let you know that your cpu comes only with the cpu and not with a heatsink or fan which are needed.

Re: Very first build need little help

Ok as long as everything works out with the 2 you provided ill get them instead. Also is there any processors that come with the fan you mentioned. It doenst have to be that processor just something that works well with games.

Re: Very first build need little help

ahh perfect thanks alot for your help. And do i need to buy like a cd rom also so i can download my games or anything. And that hard drive will work also im assuming.

edit: also that motherboard will work with windows xp because when i looked at the pictures it said windows vista. That may seem dumb but i dont want to take any chances.

For about $5 more you can get a multi-format DVD burner so consider that if you think you will want to burn disks.
