Hello :D I need to build a gaming computer so far i have;
Intel i7 960 CPU Quad Processor (3.20 GHz, 8MB)
24 GB DDR3 Memory
1.5 TB GB hard drive
Intel® HD
What else can people recommend i have with them to make it better?
-
24GB Ram? :o isnt that just a tiny tad overkill? :o

Depends what you want to spend really. I have just purchased a Geforce 570GTX Graphics card, I think it's a good price and it's not a mile behind the Geforce 580GTX in terms of performance. Anyways, it plays all my games on high settings, except for the game Metro. However, I am not willing to spend big just to get good performance out of a handful of games. If you want to spend big there is always the Geforce 590GTX, but I think it's to expensive for what it is.
BTW - 24 Gig for games is a bit much, or are you doing video editing and that?

The trouble is, a lot of young folks think that finding a forum devoted to their topic and asking a question is "research". What worries me is that this is the generation that going to be running the world one day.

What worries me more is the generation already running this world.

I have to agree with Raptor, it's the people who run our world today that ruin it. Lets just hope the younger generation will learn from their mistakes.
Glad I could help Helen.
