Re: Making My Own Computer

I've built 3 computers, and it isn't that difficult, but having a friend nearby to start is helpful (like Ogre suggested). Also like Ogre, I recommend Newegg. I have never personally ordered from there but I hear nothing but good things about them. For deciding parts, anandtech.com and tomshardware.com have lots of reviews to get you started.

What will it be used for? If it is a gaming PC, the Athlon 64's are top-notch. The Pentium 4's rule more of the digital media arena. If it is for gaming, a video card is more important than the cpu, if you are editing movies, a good CPU/RAM combo will be paramount.
