Hi im new here, but ive been using this site a lot to answer some of the questions i've had that other people have asked on the forum. I've been saving up and finally have close to enough to start buying parts for my first ever build.
I want to use this primarily for gaming, but i want to get it as cheap as possible.
I've been putting together carts of what i might buy and i think this is the most promising so far.
Here is what im thinking about getting:
-MSI microATX h61 http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=7325821&sku=M452-6208
-2nd gen i5 2500 3.3ghz http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=7073162&sku=I69-2500
-crucial 8gb 1333 http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=6753738&sku=C19-6149
-320gb western digital http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=160426&sku=TSD-320AAKX
-500 watt coolmaster http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4465483&sku=C283-1220
-geforce gtx 550 ti fpb http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=41125&sku=E145-0550
Total comes out to about 560 after rebates
Im a little worried the power supply wont be enough, or the hdd is not enough.
thoughts? ideas?
