Hello everyone.
I'm on my journey to making myself a gaming rig. I plan to spend about $1k so I decided to go with the i5 2500k.
That is how far I got to so far, and this is where my problem begins. I don't have much knowledge when it comes to building computers. I know a little, but that is not enough to build a system without reaching out a hand. So if you would help me get things going, I would really appreciate it. I will thank every single posts that contributes to my goal. Thank you!!
Right now, I'm on the stage for picking out a motherboard. I found 2 that looked good on newegg, and I need your help to see if these are good boards. Also, please point out if there are better boards out there that I missed.
