Making a new computer?

2010-01-10 5:17 am
Hello everyone. I want to make a new computer by buying parts in Newegg.com. Since I am new in this, I couldn't understand something and I hope someone can answer them.

I bought the CPU and graphic card already.

My CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300
( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115207 )

Graphic Card: GeForce GTS 250 1GB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
(http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814133266&Tpk=14-133-266)




1.) Do I have to buy a hard drive? If yes, is this one:

Western Digital Caviar Black WD6401AALS 640GB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive
(http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136319&nm_mc=EMC-IGNEFL010810&cm_mmc=EMC-IGNEFL010810-_-HardDrives-_-LC1C-_-22136319)
ok with everything?


2.) For motherboard, I got confused a lot. I have picked this one :

GIGABYTE GA-G41M-ES2L LGA 775 Intel G41 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
(http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128388)

Is that compatible to my CPU and graphic card?

3.) I have picked this case: NZXT GAMMA Classic Series GAMA-001BK Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
(http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146061&nm_mc=EMC-IGNEFL010810&cm_mmc=EMC-IGNEFL010810-_-ComputerCases-_-LC4B-_-11146061)

I want to ask, is that ok with this one? Can ATX-mid tower case hold micro ATX motherboard?

4.) For memory, I am going to take my 4GB ram from my hp desktop (8GB). When I look at the specification of the motherboard, I saw the memory standard is DDR2 800. How do I know if my memory is DDR2 800 or something else?




Thank you so much for answering my questions. I will try to learn from this experience and gain more knowledge.

1.) Your motherboard will work just fine with your cpu and gfx card.

2.) Yes I don't believe I've ever heard of an ATX case not supporting a micro-ATX motherboard, all of them do :) Edit: if you go to the specifications tab on the link you provided, find "motherboard compatibility", it shows it right there, haha just saw that.

3.) Ram usually has stickers on them that shows their size and speed. I would open up your case and pop a stick out and see what the sticker on it says.

Good luck with your build!
