Essential questions about Internal Peripherals
* Power Supply
Preferred power supply (500W or more) for high-performance CPU? Many brands and products (450W -> 1000W). Which ones are accurate and reliable?
* CPU Fan
Thermaltake
Zalman
* New motherboards include on-board sound card, network card, etc.
Music and network connection are extremely important. What is the performance difference between on-board (internal) and stand-alone (independent) peripherals? Better to select stand-on sound card and network card to improve motherboard efficiency? Are on-board peripherals reliable?
