[chrisgill369]

I got a new case and that bout it at the moment but there is more to come.
What are the things that are needed to get a system up and running...

I was thinking of...

Case,
Psu,
MoBo,
Hard Drive,
gfx Card,
CD-rom
FDD


I cant think of anything else at the moment but is the all i need to get started?

psu should be included in the case.
u'll need a processor and a heat sink
a monitor, keyboard and mouse.
u'll need an os.

ah how could i forget the CPU. Yeah i got a PSU in the case so thats one less thing to worry about. I will just take the monitor and keyboard/mouse from my dads computer to test if my comp works before buying an expensive monitor....lol. If it works i will buy my own.

Thanks
