Ok so now thats out of the way, i here to seek advice on building my first PC. I have pretty good idea what i want to go far and some parts buts others.....not so much, here is what im thinking of going with.
Case: http://www.caselabs-store.com/magnum-m10-case/
Motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157271 OR http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131760
CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115072&Tpk=2500k Not sure on this will explain below
Video Card: Looking at one or two 7970's Not sure on this again will explain below
Ram: Clueless, really need help here
Memory: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233223 x 2 will add a mass storage drive too
Power supply:Need help here too
For the CPU i want to get an ivy bridge, so im not sure if i should wait to get that or try and find a used 2500k from somewhere. For the Video cards like i said above i looking at the 7970's but Invidia have not released their new cards yet im interested to see if they are going to be better. If there's only going to be a few frames between them at the same price point i guess i'll stick with the 7970's because i have been waiting for the last 4-5 years to build a computer already
. Any advice you guys could give would be great thx.
