    Please help me get the right parts for a computer

    I know what i want but i dont know what hardware exactly i need to buy.

    I want to build a computer with the following specs.

    Dual AMD processor
    Dual graphics cards
    2 gigs mem
    3 hd's at 250 gigs each
    And the usual stuff like cd/dvd burner etc.
    I want a nice case with plenty of usb ports, if possible a card reader (flash) and preferrable one of those cases with open sides with a color or two on the inside. It should look like a christmas tree but just 1 or 2 colors would be nice.

    Can anybody tell me what i would need to buy?
    Which motherboard etc.

    Obviously everything needs to be compatible.

    About the dual processors and videocards, i want something fast opcourse and recent but it doesnt need to be the product that came out yesterdau and is 500 bucks more expensive than the one that came out 2 months ago..know what i mean?

    Im not in a hurry, i want to buy the stuff i need over the next 1 or 2 months. So i can build this thing end of january or so.

        Why not just buy it already made and save yourself the trouble. Http://www.abs.com is as just as cheap as putting it together yourself

              Since you are Dutch :D

              I would advice you to take a look at www.tweakers.net

              I always like asus MOBO's. But in some tests ppl advice other faster mobo's....

              Just make sure it's a dual AMD mobo :D

              With dual GFX card, you mean you have two DVI out ports right? Many to choose from...Also look at www.tweakers.net for reviews/tests and prices...

              Good luck
              Questions?

                    I always buy my memory from Crucial. INEXPENSIVE, excellent quality, lifetime guarantee and superfast shipping. Plus if you are unsure which memory you need, they help you select the right memory.

                                go to pricewatch.com and pick up the parts you need...
                                but really if you don't know what you are doing, you are better off buying a custom made or even premade pc.. It's pretty easy to fuck up and buy a incompatible video card, or wrong memory type, etc....

                                    Some clown will give you wrong/incomplete advice, you order all the parts, put it all together, notice it doesn't work... Then you can start another thread "I tried putting together a pc myself, and failed... HELP!"

                                    I would think it's hardly worth the trouble to save $50...
