Cool Hi, im young, but able.

I am buying an Intel quad due to people here and local sources. Sorry for being a jerk to some people!

Hello, my name is David, i may only be 15, but computers are what i love

I currently own 4 machines, 3 which are operating, and 1 of which is a piece of crap. XP AMD is my brand, and i am sticking with it, i own an Intel Pentium 3, my first computer, and i just do not like Intel, i am not sure why, but i will never buy anything Intel, Ever. I spent the last 2 years working as a paperboy, using that money i made, i bought a $1400 HP laptop, the rest went to my desktop and other things.

I joined this site because i am building another machine, i want water cooling and the best of the best (AMD FX Buying it in 2 months <33333), i am a bit restricted by where i am, the best computer store near me is tiger direct, and it still takes an hour to get there. But with help from this site, im sure i can do it, i have already selected some of the parts, and did alot of research myself, i hope to learn alot from you guys! I want a career involving computers, help me expand on my knowledge! Thank you.

You're saying you want the best of the best. So basically, going AMD, wouldn't make since. For what you would pay for a FX-62, you could get a Q6600 or something better.
