That 6 core combo is actually pretty nice, just throw a video card in there and you get a great build for under a grand.

Hot damn that does look like a really nice combo. Looks like I overpaid on a couple parts :-[
Overall I'm happy with what I bought and I'm especially greatful for the help from everyone. I'll probably need more once everything gets here and I start putting it together

edit: despite my best efforts to straighten the pins, it's still not posting. F.

no i was gonna make a crack at him but i figured if he was terrible enough to bend the pins on his cpu that's bad enough

Be weary of the 1055. It would probably be best to wait until the next series of 6 core processors before jumping onto them.

love it when the cpu is literally glued to the heatsink with the pre-applied thermal paste, you try getting it off

Bought a new proc, it's not working either. Going to try my brother's old proc; if it works, I'll try updating my bios and then putting my new proc in; if it doesn't, my mobo's fucked and idk what I'll do.
Re: Gonna order parts for my first build soon! How does this look to you guys? - copulatingduck - 06-12-2010
uhhhh, buy a new one
sell the old stuff to some scrub or just sell it for precious metal scrap
Re: Gonna order parts for my first build soon! How does this look to you guys? - Versus - 06-12-2010
yeah my brother's phenom 9500 didn't work either, so my vote is for the mobo being fucked.

Looks pretty decent, but from my experience GIGABYTE's mobos are god tier if you can get a comparable deal on one

lol i remember one time i switched cases and i forgot to put risers in and then my pops was pushing down on the mobo and the leds on my ram would turn on. it was pretty cool until i realized shit wasnt grounded and i fried my mobo. 100 dollar mistake lolololol
Re: Gonna order parts for my first build soon! How does this look to you guys? - copulatingduck - 06-12-2010
ouch, that's rough geoff.... my mobo stripped a bunch of standoffs out, so I'm terrified that's happened everytime it fails to boot...
Re: Gonna order parts for my first build soon! How does this look to you guys? - Versus - 06-13-2010
wow that sucks geoff

do you really need to boot 20 seconds faster
