  • - Motherboard
    - RAM
    - Network Card
    - Keyboard
    - Mouse
    - Graphics Card
    - Processor
    - Case
    - Speakers
    - Hard drive
    - DVD drive

I think that's everything I'm not too sure. I just made it off the top of my head.

if you are gonna build your own pc check newegg for DYI kits also the most important is the mobo so try to get a mobo that is somewhat future proof for awhile atleast. everything else you can kinda play around with the prices and brand also look on CL for cheap parts you will be surprised what you find there



best of luck if you need any more help you can always Pm

like listening to music and programming an watching movies


the pc you posted seems good enough for that, but you probably wont be able to play games on it at all (may like browser games or something)

you should really spend the extra 30$ and get the new i5 2500k, its worth it, you also need to get a diffrent mobo

I need a different mobo for my current setup or for changing the CPU for yours?

yeah because the new ones require a 1155 socket the mobo you chose has a 1156, make sure not to choose a h67 because those should only be used if your going to use the onboard sandy bridge gpu
