Help me build a new computer

Hi guys,
Im new to the forums here, I was just wonderin if you guys would be able to help me with some purchases towards my new computer. I would like to build a gaming rig, and have no idea where to start. I hope that this is the right forum to post in, but if not, i apologize.
The only things I dont need are RAM, Video card and a hard drive.
Thanks for any help provided.

Jimmy

Try General Hardware forum, it gets a bit more activity and this forum is more reserved for small form factor, notebooks, and pre-built or BB pc's


If you don't need RAM, that means you already have RAM.... so the type of ram you have will limit you on what type of motherboard/cpu you can get... go from there

Also is your video card PCI, PCIe, or AGP?

If your HDD is SATA you will need to keep that in mind while ordering a motherboard
