It's not too hard to figure out, it's just overwhelming when you try to do it all at once Start with something easy, like your processor, then from there choose a motherboard (make sure it's compatible with your processor) Then pick out a graphics card, and RAM Power supply and hard drive aren't hard to pick out, it's mostly how much you're willing to pay Optical drive, just double check it has the right connection, (IDE or SATA) and that's all there is to it |

save yourself a bunch of money, just go with a quad processor, never buy the latest greatest thing in hardware unless you like wasting money, the price will drop 50% when the next processor releases. get one of these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6819115207 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6819115055 and don't waste $300 dollars on a SSD.. not worth it IMO, and you don't really need one unless you just have money out the wazoo okay so i just saved you $400 you can buy TWO monitors, or just one to make it an even $1000 machine |

for only 200 you can get this - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... -_-Product It's still quite a bit better than the core 2's. Lynnfield isn't so bad cost wise. However, if you go with socket 775, here's a great motherboard for $110 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... p45%20ud3p With his budget I agree on the SSD, but I wanted to get as close to 1200 as I could It makes a good scratch disk for photoshop though too. Edit: monitor - http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/prod ... u=320-7825 |

Don't you need DDR3 memory instead of DDR2? Monitor sucks, if you are the type who cares about that kind of thing. That Dell one I linked to is the cheapest I know of that doesn't. Also, caviar greens are pretty slow and meant mainly for storage. Not the best choice for a boot drive. Try a caviar black, wd1001fals I think EDIT: Cooler Master 690 cases are $55 on newegg.ca, $40 for the US (after rebate). Kimbo and I have them, and it's a great deal if you ask me. |

The monitor also doesn't work for me, no HD Component cable slot and I don't wanna spend money on an HDMI Cable and HDMI CaptureCard for my Xbox. This the case you talking about? I switched up to the DDR3. |
