As I'm still learning atm, whats up with that RAM?

 

If you can stretch it this what I might suggest, You can hold off on the GPU as a temporary measure because of the intergrated Intel graphics chipset if needs be...

hehehehehehe... not much gaming in pc.... that's how it starts

Once you've finished building your rig (and if you get that HD 5770) there's no way back...

Building your own PC its one of the authentic pleasures of life

You will start gaming, then learning mOre, then reaLicing you need beTter SpECs, theN SAVING MONEY AND THEN UPGRADING SO YOU CAN KEEP GAMING... THEN OMG YOU WILL KNOW ITS STILL NOT ENOUGH (eating nails)... YOU WILL WANT WATERCOOLING... AND THEN saving money and then upgrading so you can keep gaming... THEN...


sorry.. got a little excited with found memories...

 

Then you'll stop capitalizing correctly

Seriously though, be careful. Building a computer is a nice way to get yourself sucked into gaming and overclocking and tweaking and extreme cooling and upgrading and spending more and more money on things you didn't know existed six months ago. Good luck.
