What to buy for building a computer?

[Jordan L.]

Here's a general overview, if that's what you're looking for.

• Motherboard
• RAM
• Central Processing Unit (CPU)
• CPU Cooler: Either air cooled or water cooled (water cooling is much better, but more expensive.)
• Case
• Hardrive(s)
• Power Supply (PSU)
• Graphics Card
• CD/DVD Drive (Don't forget this!)

Accessories:

• Arctic Silver 5 (Basically a thermal paste for your CPU, you definitely need one of these, it's mandatory! This is one of the best thermal pastes out there.)
• Extension chords (Most likely you won't need any extensions, however, for my build, I needed an 8 pin power extension.)
• Adhesive mounts and wire straps are useful, unless you want wires all over the place in your tower which is never good.
