Hi, I plan on making my own GAMING desktop rig…
After rummaging through the net… I've made a small compilation of hardwares that I think is best for GAMING…
I'm planning to make my desktop from SCRATCH…
Being I'm a noob on this subject, can you tell me if the components listed “FITS†together as a whole.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE… I'm a noob on this subject.
And I'm seeking professional help… hehehe
If there are experienced PC users out there please share your thoughts.
MOTHERBOARD
XFX nForce 680i SLI Socket 775 Motherboard – 129USD
GRAPHICS CARD –GPU-
-ZOTAC GEFORCE GTX 280 AMP – 650 USD
or should i get a nVidia GeForce 9800 gx2 instead???
follow-up question... should i buy ZOTAC, XFX, or EVGA GPU?????????
PROCESSOR -CPU-
-QUAD Q9550 OR 9450 – 530USD TO 316 USD
Q9550 – 2.83GHz 6MBx2 CACHE 1333MHz -530USD

HARDISK DRIVE – HDD-

BTW is there a 10000rpm S-ATA2??? If there is one… is it better than 7200rpm???
MEMORY
??? I don't know what to get… I want a 4gb RAM DDR2 SDRAM 800MHz

If my prices are wrong please feel free to correct me… it'll help me A LOT.
Additionally… can you recommend a GOOD PC case??? With a GOOD cooling system
Please share your thoughts if this rig is good for GAMING or not…
