Hi everyone, I am doing my first build and stumbled upon this forum. I have been researching parts and reading reviews for about a month now. I think I have my mind made up. What do you think?
Case: Rosewill r604tsb 120mm fan + 450w PSU
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811147031
Mobo: ASUS p5b LGA775 w/ Intel P965 Express
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131030
I wasn't sure if I should go w/ the 965 chipset or the Nvidia 680i, If there is a better motherboard for the money I would switch.
Processor: Intel C2D E6600 2.4ghz
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115003
Hard Drive: Seagate Barracuda 320gb SATA 3gb/s
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148140
RAM: Not sure yet, any reccomendations would be great. I would prefer not to spend an arm and a leg on it. I haven't made my mind up on 1gb or 2gb.
The following parts I am going to pull from my current machine:
Floppy drive(I think I need this to update BIOS and other things during setup)
DVD: Samsung Super-WriteMaster DL dvd burner
VIDEO: GeForce 6200 OC PCI 265mb DDR (I know I need a PCI express, but I going to use this initially to keep costs down)
Is there anything else I will need to order? Fan's heatsinc's etc. or is this everything I will need for my build?
THANKS
