First book

Sorry if this thread is a bit of the hook

What's more important to you, modding it or putting together a system with nice internal harware?

Modding, thats my first mission, however, you can't resist good internal hardwares. The first book is like top of my list.

Also...WILL SMITH....Naah! you're right, I can't risk it. I'll go for the first one and ask any help here

I think its great that modding your pc has gotten popular enough to warrant books on the subject!

I would reccomend Dave Groth's PC Chop Shop. It's how I heard about this place after all, and it's got some pretty user friendly guides in it. [/pimp]

But yeah, I agree that modding has gotten to a point that warrent's it's publication in books.

I bet soon you'll get companies with different names who pimp pcs and hire people

Personaly i would go with the modding book it will give you ideas in the long run. As for building you allways have us here and past issues of Max pc. I will bet you a dollar everything in that "building" one has allready been covered in past issues.
Edit: Our very own GK did a intro for a modding book,might want to try to do some digging around and find the title of it it might be money better well spent. If i remember right it covered both.
