Hey everyone,
I'm building a new gaming desktop and want to make sure everything is compatible! ... I've never built a pc before so if you could take a look at this list and see if anything stands out to you as being wrong!
Also, if you have any alternate recommendations please let me know ... I'm new to this!
A couple of main things I want to be sure of are: Will the water cooler work with the case? and Which PCI wireless card will I need? PCIe x2 or PCIe x1?
Thanks! Here's the list:
