Honestly that's all there is to it just follow it in that order and you will have no problems only thing i can see being a problem is where the plugs go :x since my board is different than yours. Also my iphone 4s broke with the pics on it, being repaired as we speak (thank god for warranty), hopefully i get the shots soon.

Funny thing I'd say is it's easier to put a computer together than describing how to do it.

If you want to go all out, I'd suggest Alienware. But that's only if you want to spend a lot.

I have a HP pavilion dv6, which runs games pretty well, BUT it had RIDICULOUS problems with the graphics card that I had to figure out how to fix (Had to update the BIOS and change a bunch of things), so if you go into a store and they recommend one, Don't do it

I'll pass on the Alienware... Their notebooks are fine and not an unreasonable choice, but their desktops... really, they feel like 50% of the price is the brand.

A custom builder like www.cyberpowerpc.com is probably a better idea.

Well, Sypher, we put it all together and I'm running on it atm. D: /retarded. Also installing the windows updates. OH AND ONE PROBLEM. I can't change my screen resolution. (It won't go past 1150x800 or something) It's quite annoying. e.e /stupid person

editeditedit.
Installing drivers for the graphics card.
Still one thing that bother me, it crashes during windows updates. .__.

S: well you cant change the resolution until you download and install the graphics drivers

what does it do when it crashes on the windows update? which version of windows?

It crashes randomly, but it somehow relates to windows updates. (Either from clicking check for updates or something around that.) It;s done it about 4 times since it's been started up. Mainly it's just the big blue screen of death, and I'm using windows 7.

when it does that it sounds like one of the memory chips failed >:

try shutting it down and reseating them ^^

also dont install the windows updates until you install all of the motherboard drivers ex: the on the cd that came with the motherboard

protip: pluck all appropriate drivers and software from the manufacturers/brands' sites in advance and put them on a pendrive, install them first thing before doing anything else.

Drivers get updated, those that come on discs are often older versions.

Okay, well I'll ask my dad to do that when he gets home. Anyways, installed all the drivers with the disks, and then finished the window updates.
Do you mind if I ask one problem related to oblivion though? (Well sort of the game, but an installation type of error.)
/feels annoying with all these questions.

That's still a driver error make sure all your drivers are up to date

Driver error? Bahh, they are, I'm pretty sure.
And I've been asking around, and someone else suggested that the Ram modules are dead.
