If i screwed up something in this build please tell me I'm new at this and only 16 I'm really excited about this though so tell me what you think. I mean come on
what do you want me to say lol
That sounds like a really really good set-up , but to be honest , its not a good idea buying all those fancy parts if its your 1st time , try to make a cheaper computer , if you short out the mobo , or install the power supply wrong you will be sorry lol .
Just talking from expreince here...thanx for the advice but ireally want this thing to be ready for next gen games lol i have a brother that works for geek sqaud im surehe'll help me out lol but i really appreciate the advice and im just wondering if i could come abck for help from you on the assembly and stuff also i think ill get all the antistatic stuff i can Just my opinion (keep that in mind)
Why do you want a 680i do you plan on over clocking ? (these boards have some real issues UNLESS you really know what your doing*
When I get more money I wanna go SLI << don't bother ...no need with a 8800 gts or gtx waste of money and a lot more $$$ on electric bill!
Forget the 200 gig and get at least a 250 or 500 gig
I do not like PNY on anything but maybe^ their ram or thumb drives BFG < I BELIEVE still has a lifetime warranty on their video cards, I would seriously think about that one...
everything else looks "smokin" !!!! "you will be amazed with that cpu"
ps... do more READING on the hardware you like and see who has the best warranties and return policies... You want to be able to replace stuff for minimal costs because stuff does go bad once in awhile* wow thanx for all the info yeh i will look into bfg and i was just looking at that board because it was sli ready. I was kinda thinking about overclocking but i dont think im ready and i dont think id need it. Thanx for all the advice ill be sure to check it all outI looked at BFG and it looks like a lot of their video cards are dieing really quickly. I'm gonnna read some more though and make sure I'mnot jsut reading a select group of people who had problems. The life time warrenty does look nice though and its not a big jump in price.I'm also thinking of upgrading to the 640mb one its about 70 dollars more can someone give me their opinion on that I'm not sure if I'd need it lol.
nvm i really think the 640mb is out of my price range for now and i dont think id need it
Keep the posts coming peoples i really want to build a great computer
