i want to order some parts online to build my own computer for the first time. basically i'd just appreciate if anyone could point me in the direction of what parts are good for what i'm looking for. i'd like to keep it as cheap as possible obviously.. but i dont want crap either.
amd athlon 64 dual core processor 2 ghz at least... or intel core 2 duo
motherboard that would work with the processor
2gb of ddr2ram (what brand?)
decent video card
one (at least)160 gb hd 7200
cd/dvd drive with burner
power supply and case? fan? anything else i'll need?
i'd appreciate any help or opinions greatly.. i know enough about computers in general.. i just dont know what brands are good for the lesser known components...and what's best for audio recording. i dont want a 3,000 dollar pro setup.. i just want a decent computer for a hobby audio recorder.
i already have a sound card ,2nd hardrive, mouse, keyboard, and monitor
