My situation: I have a cheap emachines el1331g-01w that I got on sale a year or so prior from walmart, and a hard drive is failing. I don't know how long the other parts will hold out and i've wanted a more capable pc for awhile, so I thought I would take this oppurtunity to build my first pc. After doing some research I purchased my first two parts, a HAF 932 case and a Asus crosshair iv formula mobo(I intend it to be a high end AMD system).
What component should I get next, is there any certain order to go in if you can't buy all at once(i'm doing a gradual build for quality)? I was thinking maybe psu or the hd. Also, when they get here should I transfer my current pc into the new case or wait and install each new part as it comes seperately, and get my current pc fixed? Current pc appears to have integrated graphics and sound from mobo, if that helps any. Thanks.
