Advice on how to approach my build

[ryanwyvill1]

I have a case and PSU, they are pretty much future-proof because things will only get smaller and more energy efficient. I am 13 so getting money is a problem. I will be getting a 2/3 jobs after my holiday so i will have a steady income of money. Should i buy everything bit by bit as i get my money or save up a decent amount and then buy all the parts together.

I have an Antec 300 and an XFX pro power 650W. Was thinking of getting ASRock Extreme 4 and i5 3570k but what about Haswell and all that stuff coming out soon.

if you are going to be upgrading en existing PC buying things bit by bit would be okay, however if you are building from the ground up i would hold off until you can purchase all at once. By holding off you ensure when you do buy you have access to the latest tech and prices tend to only come down over time.

Yeah save and buy everything at once. Haswell isn't coming soon since Ivy was just released. Probably around summer next year.

Will Haswell like be groundbreaking?

You tell me and you're a nerd hero for the next year.

its probably going to be 22nm too, so don't get your hopes up too high

Save your money until you can buy everything. Don't worry about Haswell, there is always something new around the corner.
