Ok heres the skinny ladies and gents, Ive done a fair amount of upgrades to my PC's and a few for friends to make them gaming compatible and now I want to make the leap into building one from scratch. I've installed cards, hard drives, memory, and disc drives, but no experience in mobo's, cpu's, or power supplies. being that those are pretty much the easiest to blow up, catch fire, generally screw up badly im a little nervous about the whole thing. But Im hardheaded and against alot of ppl's naysaying im giving it a shot. So, heres a list of what im going to try and put in
CPU: AMD Phenom II 955 Black Edition 3.2
MOBO: Anything AM3 compatible that supports DDR3 memory and is of quality around a 150$ price tag (suggestions more than welcome)
Memory: 4x2gb DDR3 sticks 1333 (again, suggestions would be appreciatted)
Graphics: 2 Radeon 4870's with 1 gig video memory in crossfire (suggestions )
Optical Drive: something bluray compatible
Power Supply: I have no idea
Anywho this is generally what im looking to play with. im a pretty hardcore online gamer and i like to play some games double,triple, or quad boxed sometimes. i'd like to establish a nice system for around 1200 that i wont have to worry about for a couple years as far as upgrades so any input, advice, suggestions would be very appreciatted.
