Only one cpu cooler, the others are case fans lol. Your case comes with one fan in the front and 3 other fan slots, I would be a good idea to put a fan in the 92mm rear spot so the front fan can suck air in and the rear one can blow it out.

yeah apparently there is

funnily i was basing all my shit off of amazon and it's also the vendor that the site uses

interestingly though some of the components i found on the site in the US i also found on amazon.fr, but the site doesn't show that

so idk,

i've found every component i need in france using the US builder so i'll stick to that xD

I already linked you to the french one >.> you kept using the US one though.

In France there only seems to be Amazon which I also said before >.>

Also Windows 7 is all you need unless your getting some kind of touchscreen monitor, or there's no other option.

I think unicorns have a higher chance of existing than gods do. I mean, if a mare fell into the ocean and a narwhal raped it, then the mare might just give birth to a unicorn.

Then i suppose you should look up the arguments and such, which one my take more system resources or be annoying.

http://www.howtogeek.com/145984/why-i-still-use-windows-7-after-a-year-of-trying-to-like-windows-8/

I only glossed over that for a minute, but it has articles to other opinions or the good side of Win 8.


At a guess Win 8 and Win 7 are identical but for games/programs Win 7 might be better/stable
That's just based on all the stories of people have compatibility problems on Win 8 before though.

my bad ichi q_q

don't worry though i have every component i need in my basket @ amazon



me i'm going to use my current version of win7 ultimate which i obtained through sailing the high seas with a black patch if you get my meaning. mm the principle might be a bit evil, but then i think of the 3 machines we bought before that all had vista on them and vista fucking SUCKED indeed one computer had the blue screen of death all the time. after installing win7 on it (since it's my bro's now), it works perfectly fine. so that's 3 copies of win vista that we threw away in favor of using win7 OS which is an excellent OS.

so i'm going to continue to use it. i have it all ready and burned up on a DVD

hey gs, ichi, when you assemble all your computer parts and shit, and you put power in it

all you have to do is insert windows DVD in right? or do you have to mess around with BIOS and shit like that ?

Well once everything is assembled, and you've double maybe even triple checked.
With a monitor attached you should see your PC go to a POST screen from which you can access the BIOS.

If it doesn't go to POST, and it just shuts down or some other thing obviously something isn't connected of incorrectly connected.

If i remember once your in the BIOS screen you can insert the disk or the USB drive with Windows and it might have the option "Initial Boot from CD" or something or you can insert the CD, restart the PC and i think it'll start from the CD automatically.

Look up on some youtube guides with your Laptop beside you, although the motherboard manual should cover you.

Yeah that sounds about right; after reading both your post and the guide I think I'm pretty sure on how to proceed. Just this morning I attempted to revive an old computer from my dad's old company (my mom wanted me to after I told her about my new pc) and after fiddling around with the BIOS I indeed managed to start installing WinXP on it. It's still going at it though after almost 2 hours, I think something is fucked up in that PC but i'm not sure what. Doesn't matter since it's just for practice and mom just wanted to know whether or not it could be salvaged.

It ended up being completely unable to work. Probably because the old company decided to fuck up the hard drives since they had sensitive information on them.



Anyway I noticed I didn't end up posting my final build yet here it is:

I can't figure out what monitor to get. One review I found described all the monitors as being the best on the market. How can they all be the best?!

Newegg has 25% off of purchases over $250 until Sept. 30 and I am a new customer! fuck

I wouldn't know what the best monitor to get would be. I'd go with LED though because that's what I got recently and it seems nicer than the standard LCD ?

I dunno.

I think I've bought so many games on sales, I've saved enough money to make my PC in the first place.

All day money wasted on consoles D:

If I had a windows 7 cd lying around I'd use it, all I have is an XP cd and a Vista cd.

I don't need the sound card, but I want it. ;)
