tv tunner dvd and hard drive hanvt desided but w/e that dosont realy matter
but i could use some help with ram i want a 2 gig ram moduale with dual channle and the higher the speed that the mother bord cna take the better
also if u could help me find a monitor that would be great just keep the monitor around 250 - 300 and a widescreen high deff

also ive never installed a cpu before r there any tools i should get?
 
I'm not sure what your budget is, but I would get a DirectX 10 graphics card
 
to exspencsive i figar wait a year or 2 i should be fine with that card then upgrade instead of spending 600 bucks
also be getting vista
 
If he's planning on getting a Quad Core, then I think he might be able to find it in his budget to get a Dx10. I say if your waiting till Jan to get the CPU wait till then to get the Card too. Def get a Dx10.
 
well i was thinking of getting the quadcore equivilny of a dualcore 6600
and depends if the new cards drop to 300 ill get i but deff not ganna spend 600 on a card id rather wait a year and get a better card
 
Mid range DX10 cards are supposed to be coming out it January or some tim earound there I think
 
ya any way wat do u think of the motherbord???
and also could ug uys help me find some ram and a screen?
 
you said that the hard drive doesn't really matter, well, it does. Greatly. I can tell you that a SATA drive makes a big difference from an IDE hdd. Having a slow HDD will cause your computer to run slowly. I would recommend a SATA drive. Raptors are really nice.
 
well that was kinda an obvouse for my but w/e
ya i was thinkin of like a 250 G i downloaded a lot of crap so i cna always throw another drive in
also how much r hd dvd drives goin for?
 
oooo uhh IDK lol, IMO i would wait because thye have Blu-ray right now and HD-drives and one is going to take over another.
