i had 600$ to spend on parts for my rig. Things i already had are case and IDE 80gig HDD (planning on gettin a new hdd later on) and a Liteon DVD burner IDE what i bought: VideoCard http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130334 CPU http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115052 Motherboard http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813188012 RAM http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227139 PSU http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371015 Everything is already ordered. i just want to know if there is something wrong and something here wont work with something else this is my 1st rig and i hope all goes well. I'm not 100% sure about that ram working but its to late to B**ch now ty for any input
usually you should ask questions before you buy but you can still change orders on newegg before a certain time. the only problem i see is the mobo. nvidia chipsets have not worked very well with the new 45nm cpu's. you would have been better off getting this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128337
i picked the motherboard cuz it looked like it had everything i would need. I wanted something in my price range that i would'nt have to replace for a long time.
Alls good except the graphics card, its got the same chip as the 8800GT but is slower, i think its designed for more design orientated stuff like CAD.... not really for gaming
Hi! I'm actually trying to build my first computer too. I got all the parts bookmarked and I was wondering if someone here could tell me if they all work together before I go ahead and order them. Motherboard Processor Hard Drive DDR Memory VideoCard DVDDrive[ /url]

meg 25 what do you plan on doing with the computer? do you want to play games or just browse the internet? also what is your budget?
I plan on playing games with it mostly but not any real high end ones. At least not at the moment. I'd like to keep the price tag under $700 and the parts picked out seemed to do what I needed them too but will they work together? Or did I mess up picking them out?
alot of the parts you chose were low quality and not great for gaming. use these instead cpu $70 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116052 mobo $90 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128337 gpu $180 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150252 ram $55 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145034 case $55 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119068 psu $70 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139003 hdd $45 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136075 dvd $30 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827151153 these parts are about $600 and will be great for gaming. the cpu will overclock nicely and the gpu can play most games at high.
Thank you. The Mobo does look much better. I was hoping for something that supported AMD but Intel is great too. I have a question about the power supply and the hard drive though. The Hard Drive has less memory space than Hard Drive so which is better and why? And the Corsair power supply only generates 450w whereas the LOGISYS generates 550 and the one that comes with my computer case (the only part of this computer I actually have because I bought it two years ago for the flashing dragon on the cover)comes with a 480 Watt power supply. Am I looking at the wrong stats on these parts? Should I just stick with the power supply that came with my case and not bother about getting a new one?
Excuse me? Corsair is not bad. It's the other units you mentioned that are bad. Corsair PSUs are excellent.
Hi might mean bad as in good, you know when people say "Aaahhh that BAD!" for something they think is good.
