Hey guys.
This is my first build so I'm afraid if I have made any noob decisions.
Decided to go for the E6600.
I'm on a slightly tight budget so that explains the low end motherboard. Should I go for a higher end? I'm not planning to utilize SLI though...
This will be mostly used for gaming.
Please check it out. Notify me of anything that isn't compatible, personal preferences, better choices, better prices etc...
