Ok guys, I thought that I would finally get this thing started up, properly....
I want to recommend products that are both reliable, available across 90% of countries, and not just focused to the super-high-end-enthusiast (eg. Evga Motherboards), but definitely focused on gamers in general. So, below I'll list a bunch of manufacturers for all the different components, and I want others to tell me what they think of it so far:
CPU : Intel, AMD
Mobo : ASUS, Gigabyte, MSI, ASRock
RAM : Corsair, G.Skill, Samsung (are others really necessary? I would suggest Mushkin but they are no where in Australia)
