CPU: Get AM2 Socket CPU! Socket 939 is outdated!! (You can't use socket 939 CPU on AM2 Mobo anyway)
How did I miss that? Geez with me...

As said there, the CPU you picked won't work on the mobo. You'll need to get an AM2 or AM2+ CPU (the one daisy linked is a great choice for everyday computing)
 
any other motherboards?


Also i am just sorting everything else out now i almost have my completed spec.

What other cables will i need and do u recommend it get 2 12 cm one for rear and one for front.

Thanks

Oh yeah before i forget what tools/tool kit will require

And good tips on building computers. would be gratfull
