at newegg, and i was wondering what mobo to get, i was thinking about a foxcon but in the revews they all like eather the AUIS or ABIT. I dont want onboard viedo, but i NEED onboard sound. AND IMPORTANT THIS IS 775 PROSSER and i dont care about the lanbut if i could i would want it but its not a nissity
 
I would go with a Asus motherboard avoid Abit like the plague make sure you have Sata

Get a power supply not one that comes with the case

A good power supply is one of the most things overlooked on a computer

Hard Drive I go with the Maxtor Dimond max 10 sata it the top one in the 7200 rpm range
 
its ok if i keep the hard drive though right? I dont wanna spend more then 875 usd with moniter.
 
Yea go with a asus. BUt no matter the brand just make sure it has all of the faetures you want (like sata). The HD you got there is a pretty good deal, so i would stick with it but for expansion reasons getting sata on your board wouldnt be a bad idea!

Sean :darth:
 
thanks all, and yes i yould like to build my own in like 6 or 7 months when i get the mony.




Thanks again
 
new build

Yeah, get 3200 memory here's a good deal.

Also get a 6600 standard rather than an x600. They're the same price, and the 6600 does better and has newer features.

For a cheap mobo, this is good.

For a better one here.

Edit: Both of the above mobos only have 1 ide port, so if your using ide hard drives and cd/dvd drives, you would need 2 ports. You could get a sata hd.
Or get a board like this. It has 3 ide ports.

But, just 1 thing confusis me is that howdo u tell the difference between pci slots, pci express 1x and pciexpress 16x. and does anythnig even built yet for pci express 1x.



Thanks
