I am looking at building my first desktop and am looking for some help.
I know all of the basic parts, but the question i have is what to go big on.
I am not a heavy gamer, but just want a fast desktop that i will use with my 50 inch Plasma to browse the internet and stream 1080 movies that i have downloaded.
That being said, I need some major help as this will be my first attempt at doing a build.
Thank you for your help
I have entered as much as i can to assist anyone willing to help me out.
Thanks again everyone
