<div class="IPBDescription">Give It The Once Over ?</div> I was wondering If anyone could give this a once over? I've attatched it is a Wordpad document, basically I'm trying to start a network/LAN up from cheap but very versatile components. I've never tried making my own computer before, I was wondering if people(s) could look at the document and tell me:

1) Do I have everything I need (I did not include the monitor because I have so many lying around my house)
2) Is Everything compatible and/ or will work?

Thats all I need to know, thanks! (BTW If this is OK and you do live in the UK I will be prepared to order the same settings for you and configure the order if you would like one made)

EDIT - Obviously I am going to by IDE Cables and all the extra cables (which will probably only be IDE as far as I can tell), but if I do it will be the cheapo £5 ones from round my area.

    I suggest you go with P4s if you're making a LAN and the processors will be under pressure. I know someone who had 3 AMDs that melted on him within a week even though he had 3 fans going. P4s deal with heat better, and the extra money is worth it. You'd end up spending that much on water cooling anyway.

    Cheers OK then. So change my processor (Which obviously then means motherboard and Fan Cooler), so I take it that everything is compatible anyhow, first time I got a stock list of computer crap together to make my own computer <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> Atleast I know how to do it <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
