I'm so complicated. You guys must be super jelly.

Ian25 · 12-01-2011, 19:55,

i'm not jelly at all. Here's my point of view. I like Apples iPhone. I like their Macs, except when they break. I love any pc even when it's broken.

This thread is no longer about Macs, Iphones, hipster Androids or anything related. Thank you.

First off, Macs, iphones, and hipster Androids

Now, back on topic.

here's what i'm thinking of getting.

Quote:AMD Phenom II X6 3.3 GHz Processor

I chose this after I decided on AMD, and then squiggly recommended it as well.

Quote:G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB)

16GB's of RAM. Didn't really see a difference between the different brands, so I just chose this one. But do tell me if there is a difference that should be noted.

Quote:GeForce GTX 560 Ti

I've found that the GTX series is very popular and high-rated. When I looked at the 560 and the 570 there was a major price difference so I went with the 560.

Quote:128GB SATA III SSD
or
64GB SATA III SSD

I can't decide if I want to go with a 64 or 128 GB SSD. I will have at least a 1TB HDD as well.

Quote:NZXT Crafted Series Phantom Black / Green Trim Steel / Plastic ATX Full Tower Computer Case

Sick looking case. I was looking at this green NVIDIA one but the day after I look at it, they stop selling it D:

And now for the motherboard... TOO MANY @#$%#@%@#$@#$@#$ KINDS!!!
I really just don't know where to start. I'm guessing that an AMD motherboard would be better than an Intel because I have an AMD PCU.

I would add more to this post but school is starting so I gotta run. Tongue

That's not an Nvidia case, that's a Cooler Master case. Fuck that / Yao Ming

Neither AMD nor Intel makes motherboards by the way. They make processors, and AMD makes graphic cards too, but that's unrelated.
What you should be looking at on the Motherboard is the sockets. Because that's what the processor connects to, every procesor has a certain socket that it connects to, attempt at connecting it to any other kind would break the processor.

Also, Fractal Design Define R3 is my favourite case ever.
