BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR
Here are the parts.I know I went through this with a few #LD people, but I really really need to be 10000% sure that everything is right. Are there any pieces I'm missing/incompatibilities with parts? NOTE: I already own the GFX card, so don't list that as a missing part.

Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR
Unless he's planning on overclocking it, the stock cooler should be fine.

Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR
I don't need any overclocking. If I do decide to overclock it, I can do that later.

Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR
Stock coolers have been sufficient for years now. As for the GFX card. Well, just go out and buy something in the 150$ mark.

Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR
This is the card(s) I have. (I won 2 in a contest, but I plan to sell the other to pay for the computer.)

bawww ;___;
Anyways, that set-up seems pretty good Migs. Just one question- you do have money besides the potential profit from selling that spare card, right? Because I doubt it would cover your entire cost.

Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR
Well I have roughly 150 dollars, then the 250 from the card is 400 dollars. My Dad agreed to pay the rest. EDIT: Ooh, July 4th sale. I'm gonna buy this monitor instead. Just to make sure, there's no way this monitor could be incompatible with my current set up right?

Re: BUILDING NEW COMPOOTR
nope, your monitor and graphics card both use DVI so you're golden
