Hello guys,
I'm sorry if i'm posting in the wrong section (I think i'm in the right spot.)
My name's Jeremy and i'm finally ready to start my first computer. I've always thought it'd be great to build a computer but i'm scared of all the "what if's..." I don't want to mess up and ruin the computer or the parts.
I was looking into Ibuypower but after reading so many negative reviews and watching one video tutorial (on how to build a gaming pc) I decided i'm going to try!
I want to do it right... Which is why I signed up for this forum i'd love your input and hope you will share some of your knowledge!
I'm going to order piece by piece (make sure I get all of the proper equipment while trying to pay my bills )
For now I have the Phantom 410 gaming case and that's it.
I'm thinking Intel X79 with an asus motherboard, Asus AMD Radeon 7970 and 16gigs of 2133 ram, with an ssd drive.
My first of endless questions to you guys... What motherboard, ram and ssd would you recommend?
I want to build this PC right. It'll be for gaming! I'd like to light it up, green... A bunch of led fans and lights.
I'm not to sure about brands or quality. I've owned 3 Asus laptops and never had an issue! Loved them to death. So i'd like to stick with Asus unless you can recommend a better brand.
Also... Is it safe to work on a plastic desk? I was going to work on my build in the garage (to avoid carpet and static electricity.)
