What all is needed in building a home pc. Any advice would be appreciated?

You'll need:


EDIT: *a CPU


*a case


*a power supply


*a hard drive


*a motherboard


*an optical drive would be smart (CD-ROM)


*an operating system (Windows, Linux, Mac OS, etc.)


*keyboard %26amp; mouse


*monitor


*display card


*RAM


*probably more that I don't remember





and any other peripherals you might want.


you'll end up spending as much as (if not more) as buying a computer.

It all depends on what you want to use your computer for. For children, for work, or for gaming. If you can get back to me on what you will be using it for I can tell you different varaties and types of products you could use.

buiding one is cheaper, buy a pentium 4 board with CPU, buy 512MB or more of memory, hard disk, at least 40gb, good monitor, floppy drive, cd/dvd ROM with writer, tower or minitower casing, key board and mouse and any other add ons u may need...its cheaper, good luck
if you have to ask, my advice is to buy one already made. it's cheaper.
U have to find what are ur requirements. i.e the purpose.


Buy a standard equipments so that the drivers are easily available either in the Cd or from the net.





Go for the latest, it may be costly, but will have a longer worthiness as it can be used say for 3-4 years.
