LONG SHOT Anyone here good at buying all the parts to build a running computer? I SUCK at it. Always have trouble.
My security and camera system runs 24x7x365. VERY low demand for computer speed. It needs a PCI slot for the one IO card. These are becoming had to find. I had better get a spare computer box up and running then replace the five year old computer before it dies. Everything runs on window seven.
The failures on previous computers have always been the power supply and cooling fan, FWIW. That's the reason for the very low watt CPU and then a huge CPU cooler - try to run it with the fan dead.
Anyway started looking on NewEgg and got this far:
motherboard

cooler

processor
https://www.newegg.com/intel-celeron-g1840/p/N82E16819117301?Item=9SIA4RE7N72501
I'll stop here for now, but got several more items to pick out. AND the above may be poor choices, i just never do this.
