Thanx for all the links and the tips. Those are useful sites that I hadn’t found before. I appreciate it! I already have two flat panel monitors, and I run a dual monitor set-up, so when I build or buy a new machine, I will be putting a dual DVI video card in it.
DVI is the way to go. Dual is more better. Here is a good motherboard I’m using http://clubit.com/product_detail.cfm?itemno=CA4830813 that you can put an e8200 Intel processor into. E8200 has 6mb cache which is tremendous. Some say it is better than quad core
No on board video on above motherboard so you can put in your dual DVI card
Newegg is a great resource for computer components. You can look up a motherboard or video card you like and read the reviews. For your first computer build look for a motherboard with a lot of positive recommendations. The processor reviews are also helpful. You can buy elsewhere but NewEgg helps you find out what is good quality
