so i have been wanting to build a computer for a while now, i have been intrigued by the Build your own computer idea for a while((mostly cuz my dad owns like 2 computer companies)) so i originally had 314.99$ and i started to build a computer.....but that wasnt enough money so i asked my dad if he could buy me a processor, at the time i wanted an Amd 64 4000+ but then the x2 3800+ came out so i bought it and then my computer building process had finally started.....So i ended up with these parts tell me what you think of 'em

1)Amd x2 3800+
--i am deicding between a scythe ninja and an xp90 also i will be using shin etsu g751 thermal compund
2)Dfi lanparty NF4 ultra -D
3)Mushkin redline Xp3500 ((2x512mb))
4)WD 160Gig HD ((ultra-ATA--got a good deal at best buy))
5)BFG 7800 GTX oc
6)Maybe i'll get a water cooling setup (not sure)
7)Antec neopower 480
8)Antec sonata--never used justopened box to take pics---trying to sell it and buy an Antec p180



And the whole point of this was to game on...but i spend very penny had and more on the parts i cant afford games........ :(

My sig is what i want it to come out to...hopefully
 
What's hard to understand about OEM?

This forum is NOT for home-builts. It is for PRE-builts.
 
OEM systems are shrouded in bullshit and eye candy. For a total noob, OEM systems can be a pain. Some order and have no idea what their getting. A kid I know, bought one of those $700.00 wallmart specials. He didnt understand why it wouldnt play his new games...

The $700.00 walmart special computer came with a 17" flatscreen, 120 gig hard drive, dvd burner, celery stick cpu, 512mb DDR333, and some crap-tacular video card.

See, its not so much of understanding the OEM system, but understanding who is offering what, and finding out which company offeres the best deal on your individual needs.

Some people seriously belive a gaming system can run great with a $50.00 video card, 256Mb ram, and an old ass CPU (like a 1.5-1.8Ghz P4). Im not saying that you cant run games, Im just saying that an A64/3.2Ghz P4, radeon 9800, and 512mb of ram is more along the lines of a gaming system.
 
oh yeah and you're probably gonna say for 700$ u can make a better gaming computer. I hate when ppl say "oh yeah, i can make a sick ass gaming machine for $400 and beat the crap out of those oem fx57 systems you get from voodoo.
 
i know you guys told me that but i forgot to kill this thread and what is that guys problem.....i never said anything about fx57's or whatever you said
