Picking out parts.
I just got the oppurtunity to build a new machine and decided to go with AMD. I need to know:
1. Are there any upgrades I can make to the system? I have a budget of $1300 and my tally is currently $1052.
2. Are all of these parts compatible? I'm 99% sure but I still would like to get a second answer.
3. My HDD is OEM, will I have/where can I get the SATA cable to connect it to my mobo? Same with my Optical Drive.
Here's the plan:
