First off I'm new to this forum and PC Building, I have however played games on a PC and found them MUCH more enjoyable than console gaming as far as internet multiplayer games go. I've watched a bunch of youtube videos on the subject of PC building, and I must confess that I am ready to dive in to the world of PC gaming. (Lets face it you can do much more than game with a PC!)
Here are some products that Ive looked at and am interested in:*
Sabertooth 990fx motherboard.
AMD 8350 8 core processer.
8gb of ram, maybe 16gb
An SSD enough to hold OS, HDD at least 1tb.
Windows 8
The list above are products that I will most likely buy for my build.
For the graphics card I would like something by nvidia, because I have read that they have software that optimizes the settings for the games that you have, and it also lets you know about driver updates etc. I would like to spend less than $300 on this componet.
Also how do i decide how much wattage i need for a power supply? (recommendations please.)
