urbex Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 You're just plugging stuff in, you'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellsMaster Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Urbex, its not JUST plugging stuff, its being extra careful not to damage the hardware, you dont want him to screw up his shiny i5 pins would you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddah Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Is there a real reason to go wireless......just asking as it is a b/g band unit, you may want to look at a n band capable unit depending on the wireless router that you plan on attaching to. Additionally wired Ethernet connections are actually faster than wireless and depending on your router configurations are more secure generally. So if possible always go with a wired connection. Just some advice, as for a wireless adapter....there are several, I like ones that use the high speed usb ports and are n band and wps enabled. Hey it is what I actually do for a living..

DrunkenGamer Posted March 4, 2011 Author Share Posted March 4, 2011 So what kind of wired adaptor would i use in this case, Buddah? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik005 Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 You wont need a wired adapter because there is already one integrated in the motherboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunkenGamer Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share Posted March 5, 2011 Oh, I see.Well, then, I guess I can scratch that wireless adaptor off the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddah Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Yep almost all motherboards [new ones]have a built in ethernet adapter, if you have an older rig, you can get an inexpensive nic card [mid range] for under 20. I looked at the tech specs of the mobo, and noticed it had a built in. Micky aka Buddah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dthumb Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I agree with buddah, just go with a cable. It's cheaper and more reliable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchus Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Also, it's probably a better idea to get somebody to build this for me rather than try myself, right? How good are you at following directions? Most new Motherboards come with directions on how to install most components. If you think you can, do it yourself, great learning experience. Also, you will need a valid copy of an operating system, I assume you have it already, but hate to have you forget it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nysba Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 If you think there is even the slitghest chance that you'll build it yourself, watch this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
