ThanksHow much reading have you already done?
IMHO, select the CPU motherboard COMBO you like BEST. Build it up using the on board graphics chip. Later, move up to a better video graphics card. IMHO, getting the best CPU and getting it to work right is more important that getting a lot of graphics power for hour first build.I'd personally go a bit higher on the PSU...leave room for further expansion and / or a new build down the road...Buy an ssd to run your OS from. It would really help if you could answer a couple of questions.
