A friend of mine recommended this forum...so here goes.
This will be my first PC build and I will be using this machine for gaming and AutoCaD. And i plan on a $1000-$1200 budget.
Here are my ideas for products so far.
Mobo:
DFI INFINITY 975X LGA 775 Intel 975X ATX Intel Motherboard - $154.99
CPU:
Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 Conroe 1.86GHz 2M shared L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor - $187.00
or
Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 Conroe 2.13GHz 2M shared L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor - $222.00
I do plan to OC.
So thats all i have right now as a starting point. I would love to have some input for all the other products i need to buy to complete this system -- Ram, Power supply, case, Vid card...etc.
thanks,
mesa
