I recently purchased the following items after getting advice from a friend (I have no knowledge of the inside of a pc).
Motherboard: Asus A7V600-X
CPU: AMD AthlonXP 3000 [2.10GHZ 400]OEM
Memory: 2 512MB PC3200 DDR SDRAM (DDR400)
Graphics: ATI Radeon 9250/AGP 256MB with TV-Out and DVI
Hard Drive: 120GB Maxtor DiamondMAX+9 133/7200
DVDRW: Samsung 16X Dual Layer DVDRW
Floppy Drive: 3½" Silver Floppy Drive
Case: X Blade (I ordered Silver but received Black, i'm not really fussed though)
Windows XP Home OEM
He neglected to tell me I may need a Heatsink. The CPU I ordered did not come with a heatsink, I would like to know whether I need one, and if so, what would you recommend.
Any help would be much appreciated.
