New Build AMD x6 (First Personal Build)

Hello, I was hoping someone could lend a hand with some specifics i'm working with a budget of $1000.

Would Like:
AMD x6 3.5 BE (would be willing to go with a x4)
Preferably a ASUS or MSI board
4GB DDR3 (Any brand just need to make sure it will work with the board)

I need help with the rest of the goods.

Thanks

do u also need windows and a monitor?

What will you be using the build for? gaming, video editing, movies/everyday tasks like homework? all of the above?

Any reason you would specifically want MSI? Gigabyte will OC better, and has a better warranty/customer service. Just a thought. Also, if you're not set on AMD, for the price of an 1100T you can get a 2500k which will end up giving you better performance even without the extra two cores. Although the catch is the board will be more. Do you plan on OC?

Dr Deuce, I've read reviews on teh A70, but since you have personal experience with it, what is your opinion on it? Performance and also overall (i.e. build quality, stock fans vs aftermarket, etc)?

I should have made this clearer.

I should have made this clearer i only need a list of parts that will work together i have windows and peripherals just want to make a good solid build.

All great mobos depending on how much you willing to spend on board more expensive ones have more features and options in bios but all of these are good for overclocking

corsairs more expensive than others of same wattage but very high quality i have one very impressed with that being said antec and coolermasters are very good too and a little cheaper

Hdds just look at samsungs or wd blacks there the fastest, i picked up pair of F4 from samsung today very fast

case i will list a few in low price and higher price range since you didnt specify which one your looking for but i strongly recommend antec 1200 if your looking for full size tower

Thanks

Thanks that was help full what should i do about a air cooler?

Corsair a70

NH-D14 or Silver Arrow cooler

AMD and Sandy Bridge CPU's don't run hot enough for a NH-D14 or a Silver Arrow. You'd be fine with an A70, the super high end stuff is really only needed for the beast of the X58 platform.

Coolermaster V8

Would that work my buddy said he has one he never used would that be a viable option?

Thats what i have, right now im running 4.0Ghz at 1.26vcore idle temps are 32C-35C, max while gaming 61C and max after few hours of prime about 80C, room temp is about 70F so the temps are pretty good

Click to expand...

if he will give it to u then yeah thats great though its not the best but its enough

Free is ALWAYSs viable. Monitor it, if it ends up getting too hot for your taste you still have the option of buying one!
