New computer
« on: June 18, 2009, 11:29:48 PM »
Hi guy's. Just a quick one. Looking to build my own PC from scratch as you can see from my specs I'm a laptop lay person at the mo. Are there any decent step by step sites to make sure I don't set my house on fire or electrocute the dog? Thanks in advance.

Hi Mulreay,

I'm assuming that you are wanting to build a new desktop PC? Here's a few sites that might get you started ....

    Youtube has some fairly good step by step guides by Compita.  There is no electro here just possible ESD to parts if you dont discharge your self.

          9400ST probably is meaning the 9400GT (the nvidia graphics card). Everything looks decent, but that graphics card isn't that great it you want to be playing video games but it's good for video playback and all that!  ;D
