If you dont mind tigerdirect, i would get this psu instead. It puts out 32a instead of 18 for the same price, maybe consider a sata model dvd drive since you wouldn't have to mess with those bulky IDE cables. Everything else looks good, going to be a fast machine.

Get this PSU instead, it's only 10 dollars more, and it provides a lot more power, and its reliable PSU.


EDIT: or the one ThatGuy16 suggested, either or

 

[hobbes2834]

sorry holden but could you give me a link?

 

[ThatGuy16]

Right now, honestly think your going to get "the most bang for ya buck" with some of the Ultra models

Yeah, thats a good PSU. But for the money i would still lean for the Ultra since it puts out more juice, but if you dont want to order from Tiger Direct that one will do. But both are better than the Thermaltake you linked

 

[hobbes2834]

hmm the prices are the same either way. which ones better?

 

[hobbes2834]

kk ill go with the ultra then. alright here it goes. before i place my order, any final comments?

 

[ThatGuy16]

Not off the top of my head, this one is better but i dont think its in your price range before MIR

[hobbes2834]

eh i dont mind as long as i get the money back later

 

[hobbes2834]

damn so i talked to my uncle and hes advising that i just buy a premade machine. His arguements where that A. its not that cheaper, B. that sometimes the parts wont be very compatible and would cause problems during software installation. What do you guys think. I mean to be honest i have never put a comp together and im not the biggest techie. But i have been reading the assembly part of the forum and it does seem quite doable. but this could be potentially a very costly mistake. I NEED HELP!

buy whatever gets u best bang/buck

its so easy. my first build is in my sig, and i had very little knowledge.... and it went fine. just ask our members for help, they will be glad to.

dont cheap out on a psu, thats about the most common mistake.


and, if you can do it once, you will do it for the rest of ur life. building pc's is actually pretty fun.

and i still pwn.

 

[hobbes2834]

is shipping always free for newegg? how come they are charging me! and also my rebates are about to end, do i need to hurry or will there always be more?
