That seems well thought out and a fun family project at a reasonable price point for what it is, Would love to follow along with a few build pics, (Hint,Hint). |

I think I may know too much about building PC's, I've been doing it for 29 years now :laugh2: :laugh2: First was a 386sx with 4mb ram, Most recent was a Kick arse I7 setup. Your choice looks good, but spend an extra 16 dollar and get the 2600x, it comes with a better cooler and faster default clock speed to boot, (You could in theory then save 22 by not needing the coolermaster, but that is a good cooler and I don't think I have used a stock cooler since the P2 days :) |

I believe it was a Phenom II X4 CPU. Replaced the cooler with an Arctic Freezer brand and have been using them in all my builds since. |

I'll go for the 2600x if it makes a difference. I assume the 3600 would be even better? |
