Do you need an Operating System?

i thought most computers all ready had windows?

When you build your own computer from scratch, you will need to choose an operating system.

/e Are we trolling?

yes

Well we are not. Think of it this way when u buy a PC already assembled it has windows on it because the manufacture knows the parts that are on the machine. If u build your PC how is the hdd company going to know your parts? The parts are needed to be known so that drivers can be installed to your specific hardware

Just like any other programs, you gotta buy.

Ops double post.

Do you want stock cooling or do you plan on overclocking?

wot this mean?

Stock cooling is just using the heatsink that comes with the cpu. And if you overclock that's when you squeeze more performance out of your CPU but it normally raises the temp so it's highly recommend to get a aftermarket cooler Bc the stock ones aren't ment to cool it once it's overclocked
E: really if you're building the pc now and you're not a enthusiast for squeezing the most performance out of your PC for benchmarks I would keep it stock or just put a cheap cooler on there depending on where u live if it's hot
