    I'm looking for basic motherboard, GPU, and power supply stuff.

      I have no specific reccomendations, because everyone's needs are different... but if you need suggestions, try going to TigerDirect.com and searching their fields. They have reliable feedback and fair prices. You can narrow down your search based on specs or you can follow their reccomendations. The only thing that I never seem to see with their specs is Motherboard/Processor compatability.

      Sidenote: When you find the one you want that fits what you're looking for, make sure to double-check NewEgg.com for a price comparison. Those 2 are constantly in a price war. Usually Tiger comes out on top, but you can sometimes get $20-30 off by simply going with NewEgg prices.

        Stay the hell away from Rosewill power supplies. I haven't really built enough PCs from scratch to offer much insight beyond that, but trust me when I say you don't want Rosewill powering your case.

          I thanked you because I'm new to the interponies and was completely unaware of NewPony and PonyDirect.

              All of the post count titles should change to pony titles.

              Allied Pony of Glory
              Iron Pony of Service
              Pony of Altana

              Etc.

                Sorry for treating you like an infant. In the future. If you would not like the simple and widely known suggestions put on the table, you might want to try not to describe what you're looking for as "basic" as that usually suggests that your skill with said thing matches the same description.*

                Are you trying to build the PC for Gaming or something else? I'll dig up more specific suggestions now that I know you're not among those who drool on themselves.

                This would make you Dawnlight Pony. I kinda like the way that sounds.

                    I think hypothetically I could make an opt-in group for bronies with its own system of ranks and titles but that would be kindof a lot of work. Besides, replacing all the campaign medals with the word pony would just be silly and lead to a lot of duplicates.

                      You're silly and a lot of duplicates!

                      (or something)

                      Also, that wasn't a serious suggestion, obvs. (or not obvs?)

                        Times like these make me wish I knew more Javascript and how to write Greasemonkey scripts. Then everyone could be ponies.

                          You should do it and then just apply it to Raydeus.

                                Back to peeves, job-hunting.

                                Turns out, there are several aspects to it that I'm supposed to know, that I've had no Earthly way of knowing.

                                I think I ranted about something like that tens of pages ago?
