If you want to build your own PC then that is perfectly fine but I thought I knew what I was doing when I pieced my first PC together and I sold my first PC because there was so much I didn't like or did wrong that I wanted a fresh start simply because it would take more money to fix what I did rat...

Processor speed, or frequency, has very little to do with actual performance of a CPU. bcVBqwlnmlM Motherboard is just features that tie everything in your build together.

Just sim

I am looking to spend no more than $400-$500 on a desktop (excluding a moniter,keyboard,mouse, and OS.) I want to shop for myself, but I need some help. Processor: Should I get a dual or quad core processor? What speed processor should I get? Motherboard: How do I tell which motherboard should I get...

I don't know about anyone else, but this is how I do it. 1. Know what you want to do with your PC. (Gaming, editing, school, etc.) 2. Pick your CPU. (Intel is a great performance chip, but AMD is more of a value chip with great performance.) 3. Motherboard. (I usually go with 4 RAM slots for the sa...

I want to to build a PC for the first time. Can i have a "tutorial" on how to shop for parts on PcPartPicker. I have no clue what brands are the best and what I need for sim. I'm looking to spend about $500- on the pc(excluding: case, OS, moniter, keyboard, mouse, speakers)

We need new members to be restricted to posting in existing threads rather than putting up new ones a few times a day. This is getting crazy. Not only do we have a thread in Off Topic dedicated to PCs and offering advice to people who select them but now we have a thread once a week about "help me ...

Yall need to call down. Seriously. If you for want to help, don't post. If you want to to reprort me cuz my posts are hurting you because I'm "clogging" the forums... Go ahead. I don't think jlv or anyone would ban me just because I'm trying to learn. So if it is ruining your day...please...ban me. ...

Ok. First off, I am going to completely contradict myself right now. In my other posts, I was talking about a goodlaptop, and with so many people saying "GET A DESKTOP", I fell into the hole. I'm looking to build my own tho. I put together a small parts list for a desktop. Would sim run good on this...

You cant just add a graphics card to a laptop like you can with a desktop. That is why desktops are the prefered platform. Oh. You can't put a graphics card in a laptop? Trust me, I used a laptop for a long time in MXS. I did everything I could to better performance. Stay away from them if your usi...
