From: Puddin' Man on

I haven't built a pc for about 4 years. Intend to build a new desktop system
around a current gen Intel cpu and (probably) an Intel or Asus P55 or H55
motherboard.

Have a reasonably good feel for major components on the market, but may
lack important details. Likely to spend $1k or so (HW and SW).

What kind of "Gotcha's" are currently out there? Is the current ATX spec
really universal? Etc, etc, etc.

Thx,
P
