Building A Computer Part 1

Ok, I would be the first to admit that I have been lackadaisical about blogging. So many things have happened over the past three weeks that I just have not had the time to post some new things. Although, that could be a good thing because I have a lot to write about now. Here's a list of things that I would like to post (not necessarily in this order):

1) Building a new computer
2) Steam engine project
3) Career fairs
4) My new GT I-Drive 1.0 bike

So, without further ado, let's talk about how to build a computer. As a side note, other people may have their own opinions about how to build a rig.

CPU
So, generally, choosing a CPU (central processing unit) is the first thing that one should do. The two main companies that manufacture these processors are AMD and Intel of course. I will mainly talk about AMD since I tend to be loyal to that. So after choosing either one of those, you need to think about what you will be using your computer for. A computer that will not be used for high-end gaming does not need a dual -core processor like AMD X2's or FX's. So, a lower end processor like AMD Athlon 3200+, 3000+, etc will do. However, if you are into gaming like I am, one would require a higher-end processor as well. Luckily, processors nowadays are becoming cheaper and cheaper. An AMD X2 6000 about a year ago would cost a fortune, but nowadays, I was able to get one for about $170. Really, it is an awesome processor, even though it's very power hungry. With the stock fan, I am able to overclock it up to 5% making it better. The 6000 comes at 3.0Ghz and it can be overclocked to 3.15Ghz. Some processors are shipped with their overclocking capabilities unlocked like the AMD FX's which are quite good as well. Now, if you want to compare different processors as it performs with different games and programs, it can be checked easily on different websites like www.tomshardware.com.

Really, there's much more to choosing a CPU than games and programs. After choosing that processor, we can then choose a motherboard.

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of troubles when I didn't know about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright stupid person.
I have never thought that there weren't any need in big starting capital.
Nowadays, I'm happy and lucky , I begin take up real money.
It gets down to choose a proper companion who uses your funds in a right way - that is incorporate it in real deals, and shares the income with me.
