I recently got into computers and thought this would be a fun project, like im having fun learning about computers i even took a class last semester to try and learn the basics and such. Anyways i built my first CP a few days ago...

And it was a success!!! Im happy and boy was i nurvous when i first booted it up, i thought i was going to see sparks or something lol

I didnt realise how big a full case was till it came in but im glad i bought it because the parts would look weird and in a mid case or smaller.

Anyways i wanted to ask, in the future do you think i should upgrade anything on my computer or am i good with what i have to play the newest games out and for years to come?


Also what do you think i spend about 850 for all this do you think i did good and what would you rate this out of a 10?

Comments are ok!!!!

looks nice. Yes if you are able to, upgrade parts in your current build. I would do a complete build again is if AMD comes out with a new CPU that uses a new socket for the motherboard. Or on your next build you might want to go with intel. In the end though, it all depends on what you want to do.

nice build!
 
Its okay...you could have got better if you had waited just a bit longer for the new AMD cpus,The hard drive you choosen is slow,i have one as a storage drive.



Id have got this instead,New 6 core processor recently released from AMD.

If you have one yes use it will be fine but you could better performance with other ones. But if you have you can use it will be 100% fine.
 
I would probably give it an 8/10, purely because of the slow HDD. I'm lovin the rest of the build though, probably would of got a Coolermaster HAF 922/cm 690 but it's just my personal taste.

Grats :good:
 
Am I crazy or is that a modified Antec 900?

Its actualy really nice when all hooked up, the fans are quite, and wires are very organized.

I would get another one from this brand in the future.

I guess it all depends on the person, i like the flashy look, its nice to show off in front of other people.
