Hey,
This is my first time building any type of system. I have a few questions that will follow the parts I'm most likely going to order in the next couple of days. Any input on changes would be greatly appreciated.
The parts I'm looking at are: Here
If the link doesn't work then the main parts are:
Shuttle AN50-R
AMD 64bit 3200+
Gainward GF FX5950 Ultra
Creative Labs SB Audigy ZS
Ram Corsair 3200 - 1gig
Encased in an Antec 1080AMG w/ 430w ps
I've chose all of this from just reading up a ton.. I think I'm going to stick with the 3200 for the long run. The ram I'm not sure about that's what I have questions on. If anyone could give me some input that would be appreciated.
The processor is retail so I'm wondering if the heatsink/fan will already be attached or should I purchase that thermal compound in my list.
I think that is all for now.
Thanks for any help,
Jeebs
