I was looking up my old questions on yahoo answers when i was first looking to build a computer, and lol it was terrible.
I had an intel motherboard, with an amd processor, with an overpiced gpu that couldnt even be powered by it, with an extremely ugly gaming case that looked like something off star wars, but appearently i thought it was reaaal nice. But after i learned about reliable brands, how stuff works etc, this was my build like 4-5 years ago?
Motherboard - Asus P5Q Pro 775 socket

CPU - Q6600( when someone first said i needed a cpu i thought they meant a computer and basically flamed them saying i was building my own lol) , which was basically like the Core i5 2500k of that time.

Case - CM 590, it was cheap and black so i got it lol.

PSU - Corsair 430 W, knew nothing about cpus, i had like $10 500w that i wanted since they were cheap before i learned what brands were reliable.

HD- WD 640 GB

RAM- Gskill DDR2 800 2x 2GB

Funny seeing how expensive RAM was back then compared to now. You can get like 8gb ddr3 for $50
Basically i just went went whatever had the best reviews.
You aint gotta post links..you can if you want though.
