What part are you looking for? Why do you need it?:
I'm looking for a nice gaming rig.
I'd like to get:
Intel Core i7 860 with a possible OC
AMD Radeon 5770
I can't seem to find a reasonable mobo. It doesn't need to be the best, as I won't be upgrading the computer in a few years.
I also need help in finding a PSU, case, and a cooler if the case doesn't provide enough cooling.
I already have a windows 7 disk. I have all the peripherals I need. All I need now is a computer.
What parts are in your current computer? Be as specific as possible. Links to Newegg/Tigerdirect are best. If you have a pre-built, include the make and model.
Too old to salvage, literally.
I got this 7 years ago:
Intel Pentium 4 @ 1.7GHz
NVidia Geforce4 MX 440
Old-ass mobo
Old-ass case (not a tower case)
PSU is 400W (not enough for a gaming rig)
How do you intend to use this new part or new computer? What's the heaviest load it's likely to encounter?
Heaviest load would be 3D gaming on high graphics.
If you live anywhere other than the United States, please indicate your country.
New Zealand.
Can some more people help?
