This will be my first build. I have read through some articles and others builds and went to Newegg to piece out what I want. I wanted some feedback on what you guys/gals thought and there are some pieces I'm not sure on and maybe you can give me some good advice on, also if I left anything out and/or If I will have any compatibility issues. Here goes what I have so far.
Use - Gaming,Music,Photos,DVD Burning/watching.
Budget - 900-1000. I don't want to go over 1000 at all.
CPU - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103808
Mobo - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128416
PSU - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817171053
Ram - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231190
HDD - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136319
DVD - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827151176
Case - So I'm stuck between these 2 cases. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119212 and http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129056&cm_re=Skeleton-_-11-129-056-_-Product. I like the skeleton and would fit nice on the upper part of my desk out of the way of danger. If you guys know of a better case for new builders that still has that cool factor then I'm all ears.
GPU - Open to ideas
OS - I'm not sure which one I would actually need. Home or premium (34 or 64). Don't think I would need Ultimate.
Fans - Will I need extra fans with any of those cases?
That Puts me at about 791 bucks. I still need aVideo card, OS, Heat Sink. Speaking of Which what Heatsink should I get, if I do the skeleton build I know there is a Height limitation there.
If You can give me any ideas I would appreciate them, maybe even save on something to upgrade something else. If everything is compatible, etc.
BTW this build will happen this coming Friday 7/23/10.
Thanks!
