-Well first off I hope this is the right section if not Mods please move to the appropriate area.-
Hey all I'm pretty new to PC gaming (just started last summer) but I'm hooked. So I decided its time to build my own gaming oriented PC. Now the building wont be a problem the trouble im having is getting all the specific hardware for the build. This is made even more difficult by the fact that I know almost nothing about computer hardware or specific brands. I already have a motherboard, not sure what brand but I do know it's a 750i. So I need a processor that will be compatible with it (I believe Intel). My budget is $750-$800 for a computer that will last between 5-8 years. This is just for the computer its self I will be picking up a monitor a little later. So what should I get? Oh and please include any information as to why that particular part would be best as I am trying to learn more about computers in general. Thanks
