Hi everyone...
I am looking to build a new computer.
My computer was a store bought pII 400... with 392 pc100 ram - it was about 3 years old, however its gone now, so I am computerless.
I am looking to build a sweet rig - that can support the latest 3d games with ease and do a lot of imaging things such as photoshop and the like.
I have all the software I need, also I have a monitor, keyboard, mouse and speakers to use.
I do not have the case or any internal parts.
I have around $2000 to spend (could go as high as 2500 but prefer to stay around 2000)
I have never built a computer from scratch, but I did add ram, a nic card, and a burner to my old comp. I am set on building my own computer, to add it to my life experiences. However, I am a bit clueless to what parts are good and the prices that are good to buy the parts at.
If anyone would care to help me, by listing the parts I would need (specifically, not just motherboard, ram, etc...like the name of the motherboard and the ram), and a good price to buy them at, and even a good place to buy... I would be very grateful.
Any help is apreciated!
