Which drivers do I need from this list? Also which ones do would be good to have, if not essential?

Only the ones in the Driver list. If you see duplicates in there, just download the latest version of it.

Never use the disc either, it's full of crap and outdated drivers.

NCIX ships internationally now.

Have fun.

It's Canadian, so I've been able to get stuff from there since the beginning :3

I live in the US....so I can use the US site...I haven't yet though.

Except when the shipping is like, $15.

Well ya....but still though....at least people around the world can get great high end PC parts if they can't get them locally.
Or they could just get them from a national company for much cheaper with a quicker delivery time.

Also, please stop abusing ellipses.

How long does NZXT take to ship a replacment fan controller?

They said it would take 1-7 business days to ship, so hasn't shipped yet.

I'd hope it gets here before Christmas.

Otherwise, should I just buy a third-party fan controller?

I got these cheeseburgers man....

So, my dad told me he ordered the last few parts I asked from Newegg. Apparently Newegg charged him for two orders, and sent out two orders. Needless to say, he's pissed. Has anyone else ever had troubles with Newegg before?

Nope....that's really weird though. Hope you guys can get your money back.

Me too, because even if they won't take it back, I don't need any doubles of the parats.

But it do.

Hey guys, I need help finding an adapter splutter connector thing. I need a cord where I can plug my headphones in and the two audio cables from my Xbox. I think the Xbox audio cables are called RCA? So both ends should be female.

In short, a cord with a 3.5mm female and an RCA female end.

You could always assemble a second PC, then sell it online with a 50-100$ price mark-up.

Well, besides the processor and motherboard, you could have two of everything now...

But seriously, there's no way Newegg will mess up that bad and not let you return your items. You will be able to.

Better link.

1) Download the drivers to an external HDD and then install it to the computer.

2) If you don't have an external HDD, install only the internet driver from the disc and then install the other drivers from the website. You want to install as few drivers from the disc as you can, preferable only that one ethernet driver if you have to.

Not all of the drivers on that page are essential, but you might as well install all of them.

Can anyone give me a guide on how to choose computer parts for myself? I don't know everything and can't really tell what everything's about.
How much are you going to spend, and do you need a monitor, OS, keyboard, mouse, anything else?

It's not about things like that, it's about being able to tell what parts are good or not for my needs. I don't want to trust anyone on the Internet for parts. Anyway though, I plan on spending at least $600 on the PC and I don't know about peripherals yet.

I've just started researching how to get a gaming PC.
I put this together, and if you don't trust me, I guess, you can just use these parts as a basis of some sort: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/sHT1

It's just the tower though, so nothing else.

Want Coup? Here it is for Chrome.

Is there any where else I could save money on this build?

I'm just using the ssd to have the OS on.

Posted in this thread a long time ago asking for a good build for a PC that'll mainly be used for video editing projects and art. Gave up trying to find it so can anyone help me out?
My budget is $1,500.

Thank you. I'm also judging off of this video. I wish I could just find a site or video that could spoon feed me all the information cause I feel like I'm looking for scraps of information.
Well, it does take a little bit of effort to research this stuff. Keep in mind that there are always new parts being released and prices are always dropping on most things so whatever source you're using, it may not always be up to date.

If you really want it to be as simple as possible, there are guides that show various combinations of parts for different price sets (I don't have them on me, someone here probably does though.) Newegg.com also has a very helpful, 3-part tutorial on assembling a PC.
