I'm a n00b at building them, but this is what I'm sure I need:

� Case
� Motherboard
� Processor
� Hard drive
� Video card
� RAM
� Sound Card (I think)
� A copy of Windoze

If there's anything I missed, then please let me know. Cables I might need ... anything.


You may find you need a power supply in there at some point. And you'd better remember to get a heat sink for the CPU.

Additionally, if you shop around a bit, you should really not have to spend more than about 50�/GB on a decently sized hard disk (possibly inclusive of rebates). Good deals are often posted on the Anandtech boards.
