So I've decided to start a PC build, and this is what I'm going to do
First off, I'm going to buy the ram, then eventually buy the case, CPU, mobo, drives, ect all that other stuff EXCEPT a GPU, RAM, and MAYBE the PSU if I can find my old one
I'll be moving all the new parts I put in this current computer and replace them with the old parts and put the new parts in with the new computer.
Here's what I've gotten so far:
CPUCASERAMFirst off, a question about the CPU.
Currently I've got an Intel Pentium D CPU 2.80 GHz CPU, will this new one be any better?
Secondly, a question about the case.
On the details tab under "Cooling Systems" it says "80mm fans: No"
Does this mean that it doesn't have the slots, or it does have the slots to fit the fans in but doesn't include the fans?
Also, a question about moving my extra HDD into the new computer:
I've got two partitions on the extra HDD that I bought a while ago, one for storing files, the other has W7 on it. When I move the HDD into the new computer, will I have to reinstall Windows or will it just work right away? And will the partitions stay?
Most importantly, I need help choosing parts:
First off, I need a motherboard. Then I need some DVD/CD Drives, and a sound card (Maybe?), POSSIBLY a new PSU, if I can't find my old one, and anything else that's required for a computer that hasn't already been listed.
