I know almost nothing about building a computer

ok first of all another person on the forum said that the case with psu would be a good choice.
i might change my CPU
and will i have to change my mobo or anything eles if i switch the gpu?

On closer inspection its an ok power supply not the best but should be fine. I always think of PSU's and cases as investments as you can keep them for several builds.
E8400 would be best plus a good aftermarket cooler so that you can overclock
You won't need to change your mobo

 

[jester070993]

Oh cool then I guess I will switch to the E8400 and maybe the GPU, but I will keep everything else.

Is it hard to overclock? because I have no idea how to.

 

[saltynay]

simple as pie providing you have a good cpu cooler otherwise your temperatures can inhibit any overclocking

You are going to need to buy a dvd driver/burner unless you have one left over. I did not see one of those on your list.

 

[SuxoR]

Yeah Jester over clocking is a bit too easy ;] but it's another thing to keep your cpu stable after an over clock and keeping your temps at a good range

 

[jester070993]

Nice, so how much do you think you I can overclock it too? And would the stock cooler be ok to use for overclocking.

Yeah Druid, guess I didn't put the link to the cd burner, but I am going to buy one.

 

[philbar71]

the stock cooler wont let you overclock much because the temps will get kindve high. you will probly be able to get 4.0ghz or very close with a e8500.

 

[jester070993]

ok so should I get a different cooler?
