Answer 1

Hey Noah!



Don't listen to all these negative-nancy's in the comment section. Jeez, talk about a bunch of whiners...



This build is solid and all of the parts are compatible. Your Radeon graphics card is great for the price. And, that power supply is more than enough for your build.



You're well on your way to building your first gaming computer. If you need any help or have any more questions, don't hesitate to contact us. (Link in our profile.) We would be more than happy to help you out!



Wishing you all the best with your build,



Elite Gaming Computers

Answer 2

I was once in your shoes asking questions about this kind of stuff. 1st of all I didnt have time to read your question (the links confused me) so im just going to let you know what I did. motherboard, doesnt matter, just make sure it saports your processor, the more expensive ones are usally better so get the best one you can afford. I have the intel dh55-tc. processor, I highly recomend an i5, they are the best for gaming and you can get them cheap second hand (thats what i did). graphics card, I got the msi n550gtx-ti again I highly recommend it, don't get a radon. RAM, just get as much as you can afford, I have 8gb. power supply, many people get told lies saying you must get min 500watts but you dont need too. i have a 420watt that works just fine. my friends gaming pc only has a 250watt and it works fine. just make sure it has at least 2 sata connectors. make sure you buy all the cables, most hdd's and dvd drives do not come with there cables. I hope this helps and good luck

Answer 3

That hurts my eyes, leave spaces next time....So, just a piece or 2 of advise, Newegg is cheaper and watch the three part video on their site about building computers, it goes from parts selection to assembly to loading. Also if you aren't going to over clock the 212 cooler is a waste of $30.00 as the stock coolers that come with processors are sufficient. Just monitor temps get one down the road as an upgrade if needed.

Answer 4

ok first of that



graphics card is way to low for gaming its never ment for gaming



http://www.hwcompare.com/11741/geforce-gtx-550-ti-vs-radeon-hd-7750/





a 550ti 192 bit is more budget friendly and will run alot easier on the power supply you have mentioned above as it runs on 400w but i recomend 500w always be 100w over it



http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130625&name=Desktop-Graphics-Cards





secondly processor isnt the best but not ment for gaming





go for 6200fx



http://www.amazon.com/AMD-FX-6200-Processor-Socket-FD6200FRGUBOX/dp/B0073RTGQM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1350586706&sr=8-1&keywords=6200





finally since your new your going to need a better cooler then what ya posted and easyier to install this is a pretty decent cooler and easy to install as the paste is applied to the cooler meaning you just have to attach it on



http://www.amazon.com/Arctic-Cooling-UCACO-FZ130-BL-Freezer-13/dp/B0048F64DU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1350586880&sr=8-1&keywords=freezer+13



it also cools really good



and should not obstruct your ram unlike the otherone this has its fins chopped down at the side to allow low profile ram



that ram is huge as i own it and you really need a low profile version like this



http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Vengeance-Profile-PC3-12800-CML8GX3M2A1600C9/dp/B00569K7LM/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1350587157&sr=8-2&keywords=low+profile+corsair



or the ram will butt up against the cooler





and that motherboard is way over priced



this is a atx motherboard and its same price but better



http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131873&name=AMD-Motherboards





hd is a bit pricey try 50 dollars for same ammount



http://www.amazon.com/Seagate-Barracuda-3-5-Inch-Internal-ST500DM002/dp/B005CT56R6/ref=sr_1_19?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1350587693&sr=1-19&keywords=1tb





before you go any further contact me on here with a budget and i will give you a complete list of parts



and i couldnt find out

Answer 5

if you didn't know how to fix it when you were about to get it, you shouldn't of orderded man!! i can't really help because i'm not with you, but ask someone to help like Best Buy or something, i'm sure they go something, but whatever you do, do not go to Geek Squad they're filthy scammers, also look at good YouTube videos.

Answer 6

Not to bad for your first build bud! I've heard good things about that Proc when combined with a solid vid card. Why not add the extra 8 Gigs of ram and max that board out @ 16Gb?



Edit- ^^ WTF is that guy talking about? FYI Chino.....Geek Squad IS Best Buy. GTFO

Answer 7

dont try becayse you will fail
