Awesome, Thanks for all of your hard work. I like your AMD FX 6300 processor + Asorck 970. But I may pass on the ssd and upgrade that later.

1. What YOUR PC will be used for. That means what types of tasks you'll be performing. Light Gaming (WoW, LoL, Diablo 3) Work (Internet browsing, email) 2. What YOUR budget is. A price range is acceptable as long as it's not more than a 20% spread $700-750 3. What country YOU will be buying...

It is time for me to consider a new PC. I don't really game heavily just some LoL, WoW or Diablo III. I mostly use my computer for work (internet research and email). I have been looking on Newegg and have found a few systems I think may be viable. My question is whether it is worth it to...

I had tried to OC my e5200 to 3.5Ghz and soon after it didn't post, and now I can't get my processor back to it's default x12.5 multiplier and default 2.5 Ghz. It is stuck at 1.2 Ghz and a x6 multiplier. Do I need to flash my bios? My PC consists of: Video Card: EVGA 9800 GT 512 MB 256-Bit...

I think this is a pretty straight forward question. I am wondering which component is holding me back the most right now. Is it my CPU or GPU? My system is in the signature. I would be willing to spend $200 at most and was wondering which would be the better overall upgrade. Keep in mind...

My ram voltage range according to the g.skill website is 1.8v-1.9v. I read that it is not a good idea to overvolt ram. Also this is my Memory. .

This is my first time overclocking and I'm a bit confused about how overclocking interacts with memory. My system is the same as in my sig. I am currently overclocking my E5200 @ 3.12. In order to do this I had to underclock my memory and it is running in 5:6 Fsb:Dram @ 300 Mhz with timings...

Yes, I have the 6-pin power connector already inserted. I think it is a SPDIF cable, which I don't need.

Just finished my build with the parts listed above and for the most part I'm happy with it. I didn't trust the Xigmatek fan so I just used to stock one for now. Also, I have a cord from my video card that I don't know if it is necessary. It is orange and black with 2 separate black inputs at...

Is that MSI 9800 GT too big for my case? Also, what would be a safe overclock speed for this setup, for both the CPU and the GPU?

Hey guys, first time posting and my first PC build. I am trying to build a PC on a budget of $600-700. It is mainly going to be used for WoW: WotLK. I am planning on purchasing it within the next couple of days from Newegg. I already have a 22" Samsung WS monitor that I will be using. I'm not...
