Well, first off i'd just like to say hey cause im brand new to the forums. My question is what should i get?? I'm buildin a computer for the first time, and its not that i am completley clueless, i know roughly what i want, but i want to know what suggestions anyone has on brands that are better than others, etc. I'm lookin at a 939Motherboard with a 939 3700 AMD athlon 64. I want my mother board to have capacity for 4 gb of ram. But im not sure which brands are better than others. I've heard Abit, maybe Asus. Which brand of Ram is better than others? I am completley clueless on that. I'm planin on gettin a Radeon X800 video card, i've used ati and nvidia in the past and for the money i ati products much better, and i'm not droppin the money for a 6800ultra....yet. What hard drive should i get? I want at least 7200rpm of course, but id really like to rig it up with a 10000rpm if it all possible. The drives aren't so much a big deal but i just wanna make sure the components i'm gettin are wicked. Hoping to spend around $1500 on this little project. Any suggestions?? Please help if at all possible!!
