Hey,
I am thinking of building a computer, I'm getting some money, and I've never built one before and I'm only a kid and I just wanna do it
The thing is, I'm a total Newbie, Well not total, But I know I'll need a lot of help
I am looking to try my hardest to keep the computer cheap but still good, Maybe about 300-500 Pounds. I live in UK.
I would like to start of with just buying the parts I need (like buy 512MB RAM and 1 CD Burner, And then later adding another 512MB of RAm and adding a DVD Burner) and later upgrading it.
I want a good Graphics card, but within the budget of course (maybe a Geforce FX5700)
I'd like a flat screen monitor, With a normal mouse and keyboard, No speaker's to start with.
I'd like a very cheap, and not so good Sound card, But one that will work with some good speakers also (speakers I will later buy)
I'd like the case to be a window one but that's all, I don't one that looks good, just a standard one with a window
I'd like an AMD Athlon Processor, Maybe one that's only running at about 2-3GHZ
A normal CD burner (as I will be adding a DVD Burner in), and 2 80GB Seagate Hardrives also
A normal powwer supply will do, What d u guys recommend?
512MB of DDR Ram will do to start with
What do u guys recommend for a fan?
And I need a Mobo to support all of this...
Have I missed anything out? I am only really considering this at the moment, But everything goes well financially, , then I'd like to get it
I realize that my budget is pretty low....
Any other advice???
Remember, I live in the UK....
