Building my first compuer

[element89]

Hi, i dont know much about computers but i want to build my own so i can get a quality computer for a good price. I read a bunch of info on the internet about different parts and what they do and this is the computer i came up with.

motherboard- www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130136

video card- www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150316

cpu- www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103272

power supply- www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139005

hard drive- www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136073

memory- www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145184

dvd burner- www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827135156

case- www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146025

Just wanted to get some feedback/advice on this because im not even sure if the parts will all work together. Also how hard is it to actually put a new computer together? I will be using this computer mostly for playing games and am spending around 1200$ and that includes monitor, keyboard and mouse.

Thank you for your time

Ya everything will work together. But as for good bad, I would say a good upper mid level box

Try this build instead:

• Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Wolfdale 3.0GHz LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor Model BX80570E8400 - Retail + ASUS P5Q Pro LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail (combo - $297.63
• OCZ SLI-Ready Dual Channel 4096MB PC6400 DDR2 800MHz Memory (2x2048MB - $39.99 after $30 rebate
• Gigabyte Radeon HD 4870 750MHZ 512MB 3.6GHZ DDR5 PCI-E Dual DVI-I HDCP HDTV Out Video Card - $262.99 after $25 rebate
• Western Digital Caviar SE16 640GB SATA2 7200RPM 16MB Hard Drive OEM 3YR MFR Warranty - $89.75
• Pioneer DVR-216DBK Black 20X SATA OEM DVDRW No Software - $34.99
• Corsair TX750W 750W ATX 12V 60A 24PIN ATX Power Supply Active PFC 120MM Fan - $92.35 after $20 rebate
• Coolermaster CM 690 Mid Tower Black ATX Case 5X5.25 5X3.5INT No PS Front USB Sound Firewire & eSATA - $71.28

Grand Total = $953.98 without considering the rebates or shipping. Rebates should bring the price down by around $100 or so. Should leave you with more than enough cash for a suitable monitor, keyboard and mouse. And it's also far faster than your original build.

Good luck and let us know how it goes.

Thanks alot! I was also wondering how much shipping and handleing would cost for all this stuff.

It shouldn't be too much, especially since you can pick up the items from NCIX from an NCIX walk-in store near you.

I changed some links BTW, I found some parts cheaper elsewhere.
