I am going to be building a computer over the next month or two. I don't have much money so I am buying a part every week or two. I found a list of parts that will suit my needs and I am pretty sure everything is compatible but I just have a few questions about cases and power supplies.
here is a list of the parts i have picked out:
Asus Motherboard
AMD Phenom II X4 Processor
A-Data DDR3 Ram
Western Digital Caviar Black
i found two different cases that i liked
Antec Nine Hundred
Zalman
Both of these cases have everything i need and want. I know Antec is the better brand but do you guys think I'll regret it if i go with the Zalman to save a few bucks?
And as for power supplies. I was looking at a 750 watt Corsair:
750 watt Corsair
Or is 750 watts too much power for this rig? Should i go with this 650 watt?
650 watt Corsair
What do you guys think?
I do plan on getting a video card because the crappy integrated graphics on the board will not keep me happy. And the parts might change if I see better deals in Newegg's Shell Shockers but this is pretty much what it is going to be. I am a noob to building computers. I will gladly take any advice and recommendations. Thank you
