well, have a look into quad cores - Phenom is only 3 cores (ones not working)
Hey big spender ;) I dunno much about making computers though lol, I think ebuyer are pretty cheap if you wanna compare prices.
The Phenom CPU and Motherboard is a bit hmmmmish
There are two models of Phenoms; Phenom X3 and X4. The one he has listed is the quad core.Quote:

Also you do realise you are installing a mATX in a fullsized ATX case? It will work but there is really no point.
Get 2x2GB rather than 4x1GB RAM. Also, myaybe consider a Core Duo/Quad CPU rather that a Phenom. Not too sure about that motherboard either.
get xp not vista!!
So lost lol, i have no idea about the CPU/Motherboard, what do you suggest that isn't too expensive because i really wanna stick under $2000.
What do you mean i'm installing a mATX in an full size ATX? It'll fit so why is there no point...
Oh and I am getting 2 ram sticks lol.
