Okay! i'm gonna be building 3 pc's tonite! so i thought i'd make a log on how to build one for all you new people.. to show you just how simple it really is!
The Cases I'll Be Working W/ and providing pictures
ABS A-Plus Black Pearl
Thermaltake Rock (I think that was the name? BTX inspired design, had purple cd's as the face plate)
and i think some cheap lil mid tower my friend found off the street
I will be showing both Socket (2x) 775, Socket AM2 and maybe Socket 939 depends if my friend lets me take it from him for a while
PARTS NEEDED
MX-2 thermal paste
Phillips head screw driver
zip ties
i think thats about it.. lol
well and i guess all the screws that came w/ the cases
CPU's i will be Installing
Q6600, and 4200+ (both am2 and 939)
Video Cards
fx5500, 8800gt, and 8800gtx
Ram
OCZ Titanium, G.SKill HQ's, and Some ddr667 corsair sticks
motherboards
asus p5n32-e SLi, EVGA 680i A1 (that one will be tomorrow), MSI k8n SLi Platinum, and another MSI 939 board.. don't remember name
power supplies
