[QUOTE="ZupaDupa"] Bad approach IMO. Anything wrong will be blamed on YOUR choice of parts. I'd do research on what others have built and use that info. There are very stable combinations of motherboards, memory and video cards. Put it in a nice large case with good ventilation and a big power supply. It'll cost you more but you'll have a great system with quality parts and long warranties on parts if you buy retail versions. Putting all the pieces together is a piece of cake. There is a lot of good help in the newsgroups too. Or you can always befriend a computer geek like me to do it for you... 8-) You' be amazed what a six pack of beer and pizza will get you.[/QUOTE] Be sure to practice safe computing, however. :-D
