PSU

Fisrt, of course im gonna get my case, but I haven't decided what to buy yet. any suggestions?

Second, I kinda feel like im spending too much money on the PSU. I know PSU is one of the most important things, but Must I choose Corsair?

Third, 4GB memory... 3GB maybe?

Fourth, I have no idea about CPU. Dual, Triple, Quad... Triple 2.8Ghz vs Quad 2.2Ghz which one is better? or do you have any suggestions?
(Many people say that sometimes Dual is better than some kinds of quad. is it?)


Thanks for reading! Any suggestions will be very helpful.
This is my first time building a PC, and im very scared :eek:

You need to either create a Public Wish List, or just post links
to the items.

I'd prefer links because it can take up to 24 hours for a Wish List
to become Public.
 
Of course you do not have to get a Corsair PSU...they are some of the best on the market but there are many alternative options.

I would look at PC Power & Cooling, Antec, Coasair and Silverstone...maybe a Coolermaster if you find a nice deal. That system will run just fine with a 500w unit from any of the above mentioned name brands.

As for the case...you can get actually a decent case for under $60. Of course the high end cases offer much more but you really don't need to spend a fortune and be pleased.

Black NZXT (nice black interior, good price, gotta buy fans:()

COOLER MASTER ELITE 335

A little more but nicer:D

Antec 300 (This one comes with all fans installed)

Xigmatek

Here is a nice combo deal on the Xigmatek case and Xigmatek 650w PSU...together they are $170. I have actually read some really good reviews about their power supplies. Just Google it and there are many reviews done. I have never used one but might be worth a shot.
