Malice's Guide to Building a Custom PC

[War Lord]

Well Carter its really not all that hard.

There always can be exceptions to the rule.

We are here if you need us!

You'll ban us if we need you.

Such a dilemma.

There is not evil here, only love-able-ness.

I just wanted to humbly remind Malice about his commitment to this thread.

 

[Mixairian]

I wouldn't mind if some of the information I posted were editted into the first posts.

I'm going to bump this because there's a good chance that I'll need it in the very near future.

 

[War Lord]

Malice, where are you?

We need you.

When you get a few minutes, just sit back, relax, sip a pina coloda, and write out a few lines in this thread.

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

[Malice]

Power supply: Before you purchase a power supply you will need to know what you are going to be using in your pc. If you are going to have more than 4 drives in your pc (hard drive, dvd, etc.) you will need a higher watt power supply. Standard pcs with no more than 4 drives in it a 350w power supply will be more than enough. If you are like me and have 10-12 drives in one pc you should get something more like a 450w-500w supply to power all of those drives.

i was actually thinking about opening a thread like this....
i know many people are a little computer savvy and building a custom pc is actually easily done (unless you get water cooling which always pisses me off)

anyways great idea for a thread malice

I built a computer in the spring for a school project. I could access the BIOS but when I put in the CD to install Windows XP, nothing ever happened.

Nice thread. I am currently developing a Enthusiast PC for commercial sale because I think I can beat Voodoo PC.

did u change the BIOS settings to boot off the cd?

 

[Spidey-Bat]

I'm pretty sure I did. I haven't been able to do anything with it since August. I will check when I got home on Tuesday.
