devilheart14 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 arhh u talking about the best table to build it on or the best place 2 buy ure components?. Look above at the stickies on places to buy components. Are you gonna spend only 1000 USD or that much for now with possible expansion in the future? You gonna build the whole computer from scratch do u have prior experience? or are u wanting to buy 1 pre- built? Aussie Aussie Aussie, :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Militaris Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 I assume from your location that you are from the USA, so I would suggest using the site http://www.newegg.com , from what I been told they offer good service, and the appear to have a large range and at reasonable prices. With regards to suggested parts just ask here with your requirments, what you plan to do, ect... Many of the users here can quickly come up with a 'model' set-up for any price ranges. Althoughing comparing brands of the same product is a massive time waster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake16 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Do tons of research first. know what you're making this for. by a computing magazine. look at articles in the magazine and on-line about building a comp. As i said do research i recomend the amd 64 if you want to amp your budget some as the windows vista (longhorn) is about to be released. And is the next generation and its 64-bit OS meaning the amd 64 is currently one of the only ones that can run the operating system. There's also lots of compatbility issues with memory, and chipsets, and graphics cards. as some dont work with others. Also if you can i rcomend serial ata instead of SCSI standard ide cables. And no matter how much you read and prepare problems will arise as its the first time. Like i had trouble getting the hard drives in and configuring the bios. After you've done it it will become easier in the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
