Build my own computer?

Question

I know baisics on computers. How hard is it to build my own? i just want to have something i that has exactly what I want.

I want to split the image between an LCD monitor and an LCD tv. decent to nice graphics card.

Answer 1

The first build is the most challenging, the second one is more interesting and the third is a walk in the park. Try your hands first on an old PC that is gathering dust. Try reviving it. Even w/ out a hard drive, CD drive or FDD, you should be able to enter BIOS menu and play around w/ those settings.

Answer 2

Basics of computer? Uh huh, very nice. But I suggest getting a computer tailor made is better rather than screwing up the whole PC i.e. PSU blow up for the first time.
If you get a graphics card like X2900XT have a 8 pin connector which you can plug any 8 pin connector in easily and put in the 8 pin connector which is mostly intended for dual core CPUs, you'll blow the card for sure. Sure it looks easy to built but will you mess up the wires? And if you mess it up the parts get damaged for real.
So what do you do? I think most computer shops will be able to help you to do it. Is it worth trying putting a computer together and blowing up PSU and hardware?

Building computer system from devices as simple as playing LEGO toys. All you have to compile them properly.

You probably need following tools: (list of mandatory items)
Motherboard, Processor, RAM, Power supply, bunch of wires, disk drives... etc

Answer 4

for me, building a computer was complicated, and i did not know how to build it, i would have fear or something, but since i am taking this class, its not soo bad to build it, because i am taking computer repair class, its a hands on training class, i suggest you take a hands on training fo computers, where u can build a PC, check the components, and so forth.
