gonna have to agree with Chris there !! a few examples of your lack of knowledge
1) You thought u have a 130mm fan, when theres no such thing !! Only 40, 60, 80 92, 120mm case fans.
2) You told irish_king that his lost 32mb of ram is from him been sold a stick of ram that is actually less then what it states on the box/sicker. whilst this maybe true, i have never heard of it my self. i guess it will a very small amount under the stated size. when it wasn't to hard to tell that the so called missing ram will be been used up for an onboard graphics card
3) You got the wrong ram for your new motherboard. alrite maybe you didn't buy this ram, you actually tuck if from your old computing. However you should have checked these things before assuming that was the right type.

Not really, it really isn’t that hard to build your own computer !! all you have to do it a bit of research before you look at buying your products (e.g. find out what component does what, and find out why one is better then the other and so on...) and then just do abit of research into the products your thinking of buying, to find out if they are compatible with each other. E.g. is the ram supported by the motherboard (just had to use that example
), what is the fastest bus speed your motherboard supports and so on.
all this research will only take a couple of hours (a couple of days at max) and then the only other thing your may need help with is where the components actually go, but here again with a search of the internet it will not be hard to find detailed instructions on how to put together a computer from scratch
