change of plans for the mobo
ASUS P5KC 1333MHZ C2D Socket 775 Motherboard

also found this vid on youtube.

It really sheds some light on stuff for me. Im excited and cant wait to get my 1st paycheck at my new job
it looked like in this vid that a cpu cooler came with the cpu. Will a cooler come with my quadcore cpu? If so then why did i waist my time looking up cpu coolers?
If there is one thing that you MUST ABSOLUTELY NOT BUY brick and mortar it is your motherboard. the closest thing to what you need is this:

BUT THAT IS 2 GENERATIONS OLD AND 190$...

hah yay for the how to build a comp for noobs video
I hate that motherboard you suggested becuase it wont support the new upcoming 45nm CPUOriginally Posted by OmegaZero_Alpha
and it wont support Intel Quad Core CPU's, and becuase it has no ddr3 1066 support
Again my question earlier was not answered. Does the CPU cooler come in the CPU box? If so why did i waist my time looking at CPU coolers?
Also quick question is their any difference between ddr2 1066 and ddr3 1066?
and what do you mean "brick and mortar"????
Ok i like the mobo ASUS P5K-E / WiFi-AP Socket 775 Motherboard

stock coolers suck. That's why you need an after market one.
Okay, motherboards don't need to be specifically designed to handle 45nm processors, The manufacturers add stuff like that to mislead people into thinking that only their motherboard will support something (because they are the only ones who actually SAY that they do).
Plus, you need an Nvidia chipset (6/7 series) to get the best out of your video card. An onboard Nvidia chipset will help you get more power out of overclocking, use less of your Front Side Bus during SLI, and protect your video card by allowing dynamic overclocking in response to overheating and over-overclocking.
Side note: When you order your processor make sure you order it from somebody who GUARANTEES G0 stepping. I bought mine from newegg and am biting my nails hoping, in account that there is a 50/50 chance of getting the outdated B3 stepping. (if they don't say anything about it they either don't know/care about it, and probably will give you the older model)
As for stock coolers, he has been using Dells, and if there is one thing that dell does right, it is cooling and ventilation. (With my stock dell cooler I had my 3.8ghz P4 overclocked to 5.6ghz, until XP decided that It didn't like anything over 4ghz)

aww damn. The motherboard i posted doesnt even have an onboard gfx system....Originally Posted by OmegaZero_Alpha
I guess ill keep looking around then.
Does it have to be nvidia? nvidia boards are so expensive. Can't i find an asus board or something as long as it has onboard gfx?
what? onboard GFX sucks major ass? none of the board I recommended had onboard GFX?
and for the price http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...DIA+nForce+600
