I just ordered my first computer and I will be assembling it in a couple of days. It is my first build ever and while I've become pretty tech savvy, I've never had the opportunity to build a computer until now. I have a few questions for the assembly process.
For starters this is what I purchased:
Cooler Master HAF 912 Case
i5-2500k Processor
Nvidia GeForce GTX 570
ASRock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3
G.Skill 8GB DDR3 1600 RAM
650W PSU
500GB 7200 RPM HDD
USB Wireless Adapter
DVD Burner
First off, does anyone have any tips during the physical assembly process?
Secondly, what drivers should I be downloading? Also, should I install them using a flash drive and when should I do that if so?
Finally, when should I install Windows 7?
Thanks, if these questions have been answered already it'd be a good help if you could point me in the direction of where those answers are located.
