Hi computerforum,
I've decided to build my first decent computer and have started to buy a couple random components. I was thinking of reusing components from my older computer such as the HDD.
My list so far:
CPU TYPE:
Intel
Core i5-3570K
CPU SPEED:
3.4GHz
SYSTEM MEMORY:
Corsair 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1333MHz XMS3 Memory Kit CL9 1.5V
VIDEO CARD MODEL:
NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT
HARD DISK:
465.75 GB Samsung HD501LJ SCSI Disk
CASE:
(http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0064LFTR8/ref=pe_217191_31005151_dp_1)
POWER SUPPLY:
XFX 550W Core Edition Pro PSU
I'm currently looking for a motherboard.
My question is, could you advise me of a fairly priced motherboard that is compatible with these components?
Also, what other components would you recommend I add?
Thank you for your time.
