Hi everyone! I'm new here and have a sub-par understanding of hardware. Currently I'm attempting to jump head first into it and learn to build one from scratch; I currently have a Chieftec DG-01BLD-U case, I know it supports ATX and MATX as well as a few others, but my first question is, will an EATX motherboard fit in my case? If so, what are the pros and cons associated with both types.
Second part : I'm the type that, if I do something, I do it rediculously. I'd like to pack as much power under the hood as fiscally possible; my budget cannot exceed 150 a month, but I want something that can dandle what's pwerful now and that which is powerful in years to come
- 3.5GHz (or more so long as I don't need liquid notrogen to keep it running and noncompustable)
- 32GB of DDR3 RAM
- As for a GPU, cards come and go and is more of a prefferance type deal
- 2or more onboard USB 2 or 3.0 ports
- 4 PCI express slots.
-opitional-
-onboard dual monitor capability (vga or hdmi, prefer VGA foronboard) with a decent GPU
-color coordinated prongs would be nice
-4 RAM card slots
-onboard advanced sound inputs (componant, 3.5mm headphone and mic jacks, least important, due to front slots already on tower)
Thanks to those who bare with my uneducated requests, and thanks in advance.
