I have a computer case. I want to build a computer. I'm 13. How do I do this?

OK. I am 13 and I am not stupid when it comes to technology. I love technology. I want to build a computer that can run Windows XP at the least or Windows 7 at the most. I have always been stuck with Windows (I'm an Apple guy myself) and want to experiment around with the OSX86 or Hackint0sh. I could go for Linux, but really I want something that can run Windows XP thru 7, and that is capable of running OSx86 or Hackint0sh. If you don't know what that is, it is a modification allowing you to run Leopard on a PC. Don't tell me ';you can't do that.';, because I know you can. I've seen it in real life. It wasn't ';really good'; themes or anything. What are all the parts I need for these specifications?I have a computer case. I want to build a computer. I'm 13. How do I do this?
I can't recommend specific components because I don't know how the system will be used, but dual cores are best (currently) for gaming and quad cores are best for multi tasking. The basic components are:


case


keyboard and mouse


processor


motherboard


optical drive (cd/dvd)


hard drive


memory


power supply


graphics card (optional)


operating system





The main issue is component compatibility. The processor and memory must work with the motherboard you select, and the motherboard and power supply must fit the case you use.





Here's some reading material for you that will help with selection of components and building your own rig.

You seem to be oblivious to Google.
