hi.
this will be my first build so any adjustments, recommendations or corrections even to what is or is not needed based on what i will be using this pc for (photoshop cs2, multimedia & "light" gaming) would be appreciated!
my selections:
cpu: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819103562
mobo: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813131540
psu: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817103937
ram: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820145579
hdd 1: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16822148107
hdd 2: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16822148110
optical 1: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16827101131
optical 2: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16827152058
video card:http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1647240&CatId=1560
os:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16837102059
not quite sure on which case to get yet...
i'm not trying to go overboard with the video card but my selection is based on what i was recommended. also, i'm being told that my cpu & mobo selections are a bit much also and i should "tone down" and get cheaper stuff since i'm not planning to game and should just focus on the video card and ram instead. advice?
well input on my selections would be appreciated!
thanks.
