Building Own PC
#13
Thanks for all the advice guys! Some more info: Ive hardly ever used PCs and dont know much about them. This machine will be used nearly exclusively for gaming...and a lot of BF1942 will be played on it ;) (Im going to keep my old mac around b/c i can use it quickly and efficiently to actually get work done when i need to;) ) I plan on doing lots of research and waiting until the beginning of June to buy. (When i bought my car i took 4 months to look for the "perfect deal" ended up getting a 2d 94 ford escort 75000 miles, perfect condition (the guy that drove it was an upper level memebr of the Dept. of Defense) for $1500 :D i have 100,000miles on it now and still runs great). also is putting the parts together self explainatory? or is there an internet guide of some kind that can help me? thanks again guys! one last thing, i also want to be able to record tv onto my comp...should i get an allinwonder card or an exteral tuner and which one? my friend got an allinwonder ati of some kind and hes happy with it, tho he doesnt get as much gaming performance out of it...is this tradeoff always true?

Edit: i would like to find out more about those sff comps but that website that some1 posted wasnt a lot of help...do they use the same ram and cpus? is the only difference the case and the mobo? thx again
