Hello community
As a noob I am ordering a new PC to make into a Hybrid. My idea is to ask now if anyone can see hardware spec problems so as to try and avoid any 'issue' later (good planning). I would like to use a newer Graphic Card but I am unsure of what to use and the highest power card that will not be a huge effort to get up and running.
I am happy to fix bugs and stuff if there is an idiot guide (step by step) for me to follow but I would prefer not to have to fix a new bug.
Also do you think that is a good Mainboard or would you recommend a Asus board of some type as these seem to be more supported.
This is the system specs are (including everything) as bleow
