Hey guys...
Well I decided to say screw Dell, and I'm making my own PC, so I came here for help on selecting the right equiptment for what I want to achieve. I have been skimming through many of the reviews and beginner guides at the OC site, and I have to say that those have helped me immenseley! I have been researching this thing, and I have been picking and pecking at newegg.com and directron.com to find the stuff that was right for me... so far this is what I'm looking at:
1. Asus Motherboard (P4PE? A7N8X Deluxe?)
2. AMD or Intel Processor (lol yes I'm sorry for saying this but I'm still torn between the 2. Please don't get mad at me for stating that )
3. ATI Radeon graphics card
4. Creative Labs Sound card
5. Antec 1000AMG case w/ 350 PS or 400+!?
6. Antec case fans
7. Corsair Memory
8. "X" brand CDRW drive
9. "X" brand floppy Drive
10. ?-brand monitor
11. etc...
I know there have been, and always will be many like me, and I would really appreciate it if you can guide me in the right direction. I want a rig that I will be able to overclock and be stable at a good price ...LOL don't we all . I'm going to work my butt off this summer to have enough money to buy my dream machine, and hopefully you guys can help me decide!
Thanks for your time!
