    Hey big spender I dunno much about making computers though lol, I think ebuyer are pretty cheap if you wanna compare prices.
    That's why we seize the moment, try to freeze it and own it, squeeze it and hold it cause we consider these minutes golden.

    There are two models of Phenoms; Phenom X3 and X4. The one he has listed is the quad core.

    That's not too bad cos it's in Australian Dollars. It's about £850 It's an alright build, but you could probably do better - although prices are probably different in Oz.

    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.

    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.
