So, I’ve decided to finally build my own computer. “What’s caused you do to that?” Thanks for asking!! Back in January (or early February) my laptop decided that it wouldn’t work anymore and so it fried the motherboard. I’m not saying it’s only the computer’s fault!! Could have been something I done to it, but I guess I’ll never know since it gave up the ghost and died. Thankfully it didn’t take the hard drive with it when it left! I still have all my documents, so that’s one thing I am happy about!

Well, ever since my laptop died I’ve had to use a crazily slow computer! Some times I’ve had to wait like five minutes for it to load a program that on my laptop took less than a minute to load. I’m not fully complaining because at least I have a computer! The image on the left is the specs for the computer I currently am working on. As you can tell it has an older Pentium 4 processor, which is slow!

Since this computer is really slow and I can’t have two big programs open to do websites, it’s caused me to think about getting a new one. I was going to buy my cousin’s computer, but earlier today I got to thinking and decided that I would build my own computer. So ever since then I’ve been gathering some information about what all components I want on this computer. Here are the links to the computer parts that I’m thinking of getting. Now  please understand that none of this is set in stone.. That is until I actually buy the first part of this computer! After you review these, PLEASE let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions!!

Processer: AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition     http://jjq.in/processor

Motherboard:   ASUS M4A79XTD http://jjq.in/motherboard

Ram: Crucial Ballistix Tracer 4GB(x2) http://jjq.in/ram

Case: XCLIO Blackhawk http://jjq.in/case

I’ve yet to decided on the hard drive and that’ll probably be the last thing that I get. What you think?
