I just recently put togeather my own little system and had little experience doing the hardware aspects so i spent about a month researching and then proceeded to buy and buy, then piece it all togeather. now i'm running my P4 2.4C@ 3.0Ghz (not that big of a proclimation since its very typical, but is a big step for me) and all my hardware is doing what i want. Two sites that helped a lot with guides and articles are tweak3d.net and tomshardware.com. Aside from that i bought all my stuff through pricewatch and pricegrabber. the stores i found most speedy, reliable, and least expensive were newegg (usually free shipping), googlegear, and ewiz (fairly new but sent me some free stuff for buying 3 components from them). i am very satisfied with my stuff, after shuffling through motherboard manuals and all that good stuff ive got it doing what i want. Good Luck to you.
if your interested in what i got, here ye go- P4 2.4C proc., Abit IC7 mobo, Antec SLK2600AMB case, maxtor 120gb HDD, 19" Hitachi .22 dp monitor, samsung 52x24x52-x16 cdr/w/dvd, 2x256MB buffalo PC3200 RAM, Antec True430 PowerSupply, Altec Lansing 5.1 speakers, 2 80mm fans, etc... for under $1300 (i love my Xtrac PRO HS mousepad that was $13) G'day.
