DO THESE PARTS WORK TOGETHER?
Hi,
I am trying to build my first computer, with the added caviat that I know little to nothing about the inner workings, but I figure now is as good a time as any to learn. Ive been doing research and these are the parts i have picked out mostly from geek.com. let me know if they work/not compatible etc... I tried to keep it cheap so that if i mess up its not too big a loss
