I'm still new to the building your own computer scene, but I *think* I have an idea of what I need. I'm a definite noob when it comes to this kind of thing.
I've tried looking for something mainly for games and downloading music/movies. I don't really want to exceed 700$, but a little over isn't that big of a deal. (That's in Canadian dollars)
So far I've got:
Case
Newegg.ca - RAIDMAX AZTEC ATX-619WB Black/ Silver 1.0mm SECC Steel ATX Mid Tower Foldout MB Computer Case - Computer Cases
Memory
Newegg.ca - G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1000 (PC2 8000) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Desktop Memory
Video Card
Newegg.ca - EVGA 512-P3-N980-AR GeForce 9800 GT Hybrid Power 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards
Hard Drive
Newegg.ca - Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD5000AAKS 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - Internal Hard Drives
I'm not sure how I can tell if these or other parts will function together, or fit in the case.
I still don't know what to do for Power supply, motherboard, fans, or CD drives and burners.
If anyone could suggest Power supply, motherboard, fans, or CD drives and burners, or anything else I missed (which I'm sure there is something I missed), or if you could suggest anything to improve my list above, please do .
Trying to stay close to the 700$ price range, in Canadian dollars.
Thanks in advance!
