Onion's Building a Computer Guide: Cases and Fans

Posted by OnionKnight, in How to Build a Computer 05 March 2010 - - - - - - · 40 views
Computer Cases, Fans
Decided to make a series of guides because I was unbelievably stupid the first time building a computer. Almost fried my motherboard, bought the wrong case, the thing vrummed like a car and in the end I had to get some serious help lol. Heck even the second computer I just recently made had a lot of stupid little mistakes, but not that severe. Feel free to...

Athlon II x4 620
Alright so I finally picked up my MOBO and CPU today.

I went with an Athlon II x4 620 for $108.99 and MSI 790X-G45 ATX AM3 Crossfire Motherboard for $89.99. Both are just average mobo + CPU compared to what is out there in todays market, but its good enough for me. When installing the CPU, you have to lift the safety arm, and then just drop the...

Patriot Sector 5

First thing I bought was Patriot Sector 5 4GB (2 x 2 GB) DDR3-1333 RAM for 119.99. I was considering some value ram for 25 bucks less but I asked around and learned if I wanted some dependable and stable ram that won't die on me, it is worth the $25 bucks more. Another thing I bought...

Making My Own Rig: The Case

Logysis Case
Alright so here is the case. It costed me $17 and came with a 480W power supply. First thing I am planning to do is huck the power supply out the window because this shitty 480W PSU actually only puts out 300W. But for $17 I can't complain right?

Both of us are complete noobs so when we actually got this to work, we were honestly surprized.

Here is the computer me and my friend built under $600. Was it the best rig? No definitely not. $600 dollars Canadian was his budget so DDR3 ram and compatible motherboard was out of the question he said (only would have costed him an extra $50...
