[QUOTE="lubbe75, post: 319604, member: 83798"] Ok, starting to get something... Case: Antec NSK2480 including 380W power supply (not very small but seemingly popular) CPU: Intel core2duo E7200 2.53GHz (3 Mb, 1066 MHz, s-775) including fan Graphics card: ASUS HD3450 256MB GDDR2 PCI-E DVI/HDMI/VGA (passive, low profile) Harddrive: deciding later Optical reader/writer: deciding later Looking good so far? How do I choose a motherboard? There are just too many and I don't know what to look for. I suppose it doesn't need to have an HDMI connector since I am going for a separate graphics card with HDMI. But I do want an optical audio connector (not planning on a separate sound card). And memory? 2Gb, but what else to look for? It has to fit with the motherboard in terms of connector, but also I don't want to waste money on memory that is too fast for my motherboard... It's a jungle. [/QUOTE]
