I'd suggest getting windows 8. If you don't like the metro ui, you can get a program to put back the start menu. It's faster than windows 7, so yah. It also looks better IMO.

Noted. But probably not, idk. I am leaving the OS out for now.

i honestly think you should just get all of your parts from newegg
amazon is stuff sometimes when it comes to pc parts
theres a chance they can just take your money and not give the peice to you if its pre-owned

They can't take my money and give me nothing(?)



I just asked my father if he could give me a loan of $300 and I'd pay him back $50/mo

That is the ugliest case evar.... dont get that case.

that has nothing to do with amazon specifically. the same applies to ebay and any other online marketplace. also, it isnt just pre-owned stuff pal, anyone can take your money and run, new merch or not.

Hi.

If you want you can have a look at my current rig (already built this, actually typing this from it, x3)

Personally I'd suggest the AMD FX 6350 over the 6300, nearly an extra GHz per core for another ~$30, though its up to you. Otherwise, definitely looks solid for such a cheap build (Mine isn't too expensive either, though mine includes two monitors.)

I heard buying parts from Amazon is bad. Is this true?

No.

computer megathread

literally EVERY THREAD i see that relates to a computer this is the first reply

shut the forget up

Well I already got my graphics card. So the entire computer needs to be built based around the graphics card.

Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($69.99 @ Newegg)

maybe you can save money by dropping the wireless card, and picking a mobo that has wifi built in.

or at least break even on the price and have a better model mobo

i only know the intel ones though. so i dunno if it can be done for you

Why would you need a wifi anyway, I use cable because compared to wifi its faster for me

You should use a static absorbing band just in case.
