Hi guys so my friend had this nice prebuilt HP PC and his parents were going to throw it out, I salvaged any good usable parts and am making him a low budget gaming build with them. Here is the pc part picker list - https://pcpartpicker.com/user/tyrowe01/saved/hJGd6h I went through many tests while building it and am almost positive the motherboard is faulty, I cannot get a display to appear no matter what I do and I have tried a lot of things. Any methods are appreciated but I am really just looking for a new motherboard to purchase. So this is a hard one to find cheap because I need 6 ddr3 ram slots (4 would be okay I guess if that is even a thing) (there are 6 2 gig ddr3 ram sticks), the motherboard needs to be able to run that GPU in the list and also has a socket that can be used with a Intel - Core i7-930 2.8GHz Quad-Core Processor.

Bumping for the CPU cooler question, seems to be in good shape.

HEY EVERYONE, sorry I forgot to ask, will this be able to play PUBG at low settings?

Alright, so down the road I would have to get more than just new CPU but for not all good, also I forgot to ask everyone, would this be able to handle PUBG at low settings?

I was definitely thinking about an SSD as only 1TB won't be very much in the long run, thank you for the feedback!

Sweet, thank you for the feedback! Also I was wondering, let's say I want to upgrade the CPU for him to match the quality of the GPU a little more, would most I7 CPU's work and if so which one would you recommend for a budget build like this?

Thank you for the feedback. I am looking for budget and wanted to make sure it was modular, there were some other deals that were all sold out and I can get the 20 dollar rebate on this one so it is only 50 dollars, I also did the 8 dollar warranty just in case.

Thanks for the feedback. I am sorry I am confused, do you mean the GPU will not be able to perform as well due to other components like the CPU?

Here is the pc part picker list - https://pcpartpicker.com/user/tyrowe01/saved/hJGd6h Okay so some quick stuff to note, this was all from an HP computer, anything that is free in there I already have and want to utilize. - The RAM itself is actually 6 2GB sticks made by Elpida, and are DDR3-1066Mhz, I couldnt pick them due to them not being on the site. - The motherboard is also not on the site and here is a link to it, https://www.serversupply.com/MOTHERBOARD/DESKTOP BOARD/TRUCKEE/HP/612503-002.htm my main question is if this motherboard would fit well in the new case and be fine with the GPU, I want to make sure everything is compatible. I already know CPU and RAM would work so I am hoping I can just re-use it. - The monitor is not specific will just be some 1920x1080 24-27 inch. Any advice and comments would be appreciated, if not compatible with the motherboard I also would love some suggestions as to a new budget motherboard or a new motherboard and newer larger RAM to use so I do not need 6 slots, thank you for reading!!! Final question, do I need a new CPU cooler or is the one that came with it suitable?
