This article is the continual of Part 1: Begginer Tips: Build Your Custom PC
The number of SATA connectors will limit how lots of drives
can be installed inside the computer. Usually, the number will suffice for most
users. The number of PCI slots depends entirely on whether you plan to make use
of them or in the event you will even need them. Plan slot for each type of
card you will add. Finally, think about how many USB slots will be built in
& whether that is for all of your devices (mouse, keyboard, printer,
camera, microphone, mobile phone...)
Most basic users can receive a motherboard with an on-board
video card. This will be for basic computer use & viewing of most videos.
However, in the event you are planning to make video intensive use of your
computer such as playing 3d video games or editing movies or pics, then you
will certainly need a standalone video card instead of an on-board card. Video
card (GPU) benchmarks are available in the same fashion as CPU benchmarks.
Your drive choices will be simple. Grab a SATA (connection
type) DVD burner & a hard drive that suits your size & speed needs.
Usually, you will need a 7200RPM (rotation per minute) hard drive or better
& as much space in gigabytes as you anticipate using. In the event you have
lots of pics or video, upgrade to a 500GB or higher hard drive. When that drive
fills up, you can easily add a second internal drive or expand the computer
with an external USB hard drive.
Your largest consideration when choosing the computer case
will be aesthetic. Discover a case that you think looks nice & has a
solid build quality(with good reviews) & add it to your cart. The last hardware
item will be the power supply unit. While some cases come with, most do not.
You will need an appropriate wattage to support your machine (300+ for basic
machines, 500+ for high performance machines). Additionally, you will need
connectors (RAILS) to power all of your devices. At the least, you will need
SATA power cables for each drive).
To be safe, add an order of thermal paste/thermal compound
for your CPU.
When you have received all of your parts, it is time to
start. The first step to assembling your new computer is to open the case &
lay it down on your work bench. This is done by removing the large screws on
the back that hold the side panel in place. You can ignore the side panel until
you are done assembling the machine. In the event you ordered a case without a
power supply unit, go ahead & unpack your PSU & place it in the case
& use the screws to hold it in place.
To be continued, stay tuned....
