|  Hi everyone! New member here, just wanted to introduce myself. I'm 32 from Jackson MS (originally from Pittsburgh) and have been browsing the forums here for some tips on my first build. I've had a Dell dimension 8400 for the past few years and I decided that this time around I would take the plunge and build my own rig for gaming. My hardware experience is limited to installing an after market fan on my 6800GT that came with my Dell. So as you can imagine I'm a bit overwhelmed by all the choices I am now faced with when it comes to my build. I'll post my build proper forum for you guys to check out. Go easy on me (not the build), my head is already spinning from all the research i have been doing on components. Anyways, you all seem like a very knowledgeable and Helpful group. I hope to get some good feedback. | ||||||||||||||
