Hey guys.. wondering if you can help me out.. i've been reading up on comps for the whole summer now.. still don't think i've gotten it down right...
so.. here's what i was thinking of in my hopefully-soon-to-be comp...
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3000+ socket 939. ( i still don't get the winchester newcastle stuff, which one's better?)
Video Card: 6600GT PCI-E (probably XFX or leadtek... pick one
)
Motherboard: So many, need help picking this one
RAM: seriously no idea on what to pick...
P.S. feel free to change any of the choices i've made, and this comp will probably be used for gaming, middle end i guess, overclock a little on the cpu and video card not sure. (clear up something for me, you overclock the cpu using the bios right?)
thanks.. i think that's all the important parts i need... sound card, i'll just get a cheap one, not really concerned about that one...
P.P.S. Don't know how hard drive and ram is compatible with the motherboard (like video cards and motherboard has to be agp, pci-e, etc.; cpu and motherboard has to be same socket, so what about hard drive and ram? )
Thanks a lot
