I am making my own gaming computer and i was wondering if a SLI setup is really hard to put together compared to justa normal graphics card setup or is it about the same difficulty? Also wondering if it mattered to play Call of Duty 4, does SLI help if you have an XFX GeForce 8800 GTX graphics card?


Answer
making a gaming computer with and without SLI is easy, its just getting the parts, then carefully putting them together, and checking for issues that may arise, such as dead parts, or leaking water cooling systems, or even overheating processors, and don't listen to those AMD\ATI fans, they don't realize intel and Nvidia is outdoing AMD\ATI right now, and SLI is dependent on the game, as most support it now, but some don't and it will help Call of Duty 4, as ive see it have an option to use SLI on it.

What are all the parts I will need to build my own gaming computer?

Q. I need to know all the parts I will need to build my own gaming computer. Thank you!


Answer
Here are all the parts I would recommend (and brands) best to build a gaming computer plus two websites where you can get the parts cheaply.

CPU (Processor) - Intel

Motherboard - Asus, although AsRock has been making some real quality units lately, and their bios setup is really nice. Not to mention their price.

Graphic Card - EVGA or Asus are the best brands to pick.

Memory (RAM) - Corsair - Mushkin, best pick they are the best manufacturers on the market.

Solid State Drive - Corsair or Intel

Hard Disk Drive - Western Digital, they are fast, reliable and if they do break down their Advanced RMA feature is very convenient. Not to mention 3-5 year warranties.

Power Source Unit - Corsair, Enermax. Remember the PSU is important, I would get a 600W one for single graphic card machines and 750W for more than 1.

CD Drive - Any would do but 24x drive will be best

Case - NZXT, Antec, Thermaltake are the better brands. Case selection is important because it gives the machine proper cable management as well as good ventilation for cooling.

Heatsink/CPU Fan - Thermaltake, Tuniq and too many more to list â tons of options here, the stock fans that come with the i7 from intel are really pretty bad. I would recommend upgrading your fan for a little bit extra. I would also recommend for a gaming PC adding case fans or if you have enough money liquid cooling.
