Building My First Computer

[odBilal]

I hope I didnt forgt something

You might want a case to put it all in if you haven't already got an ATX form factor case sitting around. Plus your mobo can handle 1600MHz DDR3 so you might want to invest in that instead (or 2000MHz if you plan to get into overclocking).

Also, what Tubez said.

Well actually I have a ATX form factor case sitting around

Spoiler: case

But what do you mean by invest in the Motherboard that can handle 1600MHz?

He means that you should get ram that runs in 1600 mhz or 2000 mhz but that isnt really necessary unless you plan on overclocking and even then timing is more important, and u can overclock the ram if you need it but like I said it's only necessary if you plan on overclocking quite a bit.

OK thanks for the answer. I will change the HDD, PSU RAM and enter the PC Master Race (jk)

I'm a 3D artist, MORE and FASTER RAM is always better in my books.

Yeah thats true =) but for gaming you really don't notice any difference between ram with 1333 mhz and 9-9-9-24 and ram with 1600 mhz and 8-8-8-20 so then you only need it for overclocking

It quickly cost a bit more then you thought u would spend :=) But it's better to buy a good pc then to cheap in on stuff and have buy a completely new item a couple of month later and just to point it out a bit more the performance gain between 1333 and 1600 mhz (Ram) is around 1-2%

Pfffft... next you'll say Blacklight UV case lights don't improve system performance.

Or that the Iron Cross I have blu-tacked to my case isn't 'lucky'.

Everyone knows that a computer cant work without a bit of UV light ^^

I'm thinking of replacing the blue LEDs on my mobo with UV ones.

Sounds cool. I've actually never had UV lights in my chassi.

I went off case lighting mods a while back. Too much fucking around and spending time keeping the insides of your rig spotless.

I think the next case mod I do will be stripping all the panels down to base metal then having all the panels and the chassis powder-coated black and replacing all the stock LEDs (all fucking blue, BLEH) replaced with either yellow or UV LEDs. Probably get out the tape measure and see if there's room to mount a 200mm exhaust fan in the top of the case, too... errr, might be a better idea to do that before the powder coating.

Yeah Im starting to get a bit annoyed on my blue led fans aswell, I've been thinking about replacing my chassi and get some non led fans/red fans.
