Hello everyone. This is my first post but i have been reading these forums for a couple of weeks. I will get to the point.
I really dont know too much about computers but i have decided to build one to better understand all the ins and outs. After reading everything i could online about cpu's i decided to buy a p4 2.4ghz 512k 533fsb. The motherboard i ordered is an intel d850emv2. The memory i am putting in is 2 sticks of Viking 256mb rimm 165 pin RDRAM 800mhz. I went this this combo because i dont want to overclock and i want as few problems as possible.
Does this sound like a good start to you pc veterns? I know you guys all probably prefer AMD but bare with me
also i was thinking of getting soundblaster audigy platinum so i could do a little home recording and i play a lot of games. Vidcard i was thinking about was the geForce4 128mb.
Any suggestions on different cards that are better, speakers, cases, or if you want to tell me i am a fool for my cpu motherboard selection, are greatly appreciated.
thanks for your time.
