Gonna build a computer for my birthday, any suggestions?

Technically, yes. But you won't be utilizing one or the other. Most likely the NVIDIA card will be used, the built-in GPU within the APU won't. If the graphics card were AMD, then the internal GPU would boost the external GPU.

EDIT: Also, many complaints amongst forums of instability and huge bugginess between them.

Oh forget wait

I thought you said AMD CPU and NVIDIA GPU was a bad choice. ...Lol.

No, ASUS... but is it compatible? I can't seem to find information on the product about whether or not it's compatible with the motherboard trymos suggested (that I will be using along with the CPU he suggested ktnx).

floppy drive!


and unless you need like 7.1 surround for your music production, (and that like 99% of games and movies dont support) then you dont need a dedicated sound card.
as all mid-end motherboards have built in 5.1 that works just fine.

Alright, thanks for informing me.

also ARE floppy drives addable? I mean, they're basically really old optical drives and i'm pretty sure cases have multiple slots for optical drives... nah, it wouldn't be compatible with the motherboard.... probably...

[Grodus]

Bump.

Sound cards are pretty useless and only give any bonus if you have like 60 speakers placed at 5 degree increments apart from eachother surrounding you.

This has lots of irrelevant. If I remember right, floppy disks have all the same connections as disc drives.

A cheap drive

Integrated is more than sufficient unless you're some sort of audiophile
