first time building a pc...

[deh707]

hey what about the fans and heatsink? all of those are included?

a conversation with my friend:

me: so will all of those parts be all i need?
him: not including the mouse, keyboard, monitor, speakers
me: just the actual pc
him: fans
him: heat sink
him: the case might come with a case fan but not for the processor

what's he talking about?

 

[aspire]

he is asking if you have bought an aftermarket cpu fan or if your case has a fan in it or if you plan on getting some more

 

[deh707]

ok, the processor i chose:

AMD Athlon 64 3200+, 512KB L2 Cache, Socket 939 64-bit Processor - Retail

it says right above "with Heatsink and Fan"

you may however want to upgrade the cpu fan. Look on newegg go to fans cooling then click cpu socket 939 then you will get a bunch of diff one i would suggest a zalman 7000cu with 120mm fan doesnt get any better than that
