Thank you so much for all this help. I'm really excited about getting all this pieced together!

Yeah I can purchase both of those today. Would the next upgrade be ram? or does that not really have anything to do with gaming?

http://www.enermaxusa.com/case_eca3253.php that's the case I was referring to.

I actually just bought a new case for my old system. It has great ventilation, so I think I might stick with it. I realize that all my parts are due for an upgrade. I'm actually pretty upset with the gpu because a salesmen at fry's told me that it would be able to run most of the games I want at...

Just some forewarning, I'm a bit new to computer terminology, so I'll try my best to be as clear as possible. My motherboard is an hp M2N68-LA. My processor is an AMD Athlon II X2 240, 2800 mhz. I have a single stick of ddr3 which is a 2gig. My graphics card is a Gigabyte Gefore GTX 650 TI and...

Just got a Gigabyte GeForce gtx 650 ti and was wondering how much I can over clock it. I'm using the oc guru ii. Really trying to maximize what I can get out of it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

So I am an idiot. The new card I purchased is an AM3+ and the my mobo has just an AM3 socket. They may fit, but will not work.

My old CPU is a AMD Athlon II x2 240. The new one is an AMD FX 4100. The mobo is M2N68-LA. I tried to do a bios update from the manufacturer's website and didn't see one.

Just bought a new CPU. I made sure to buy an AM3 because my mobo has an AM3. When I put it in my computer, it turns on, but there is no display on my monitor, and also the power never reaches my mouse or keyboard (meaning I don't see them light up). I've tried clearing the cmos, unplugging the...
