Hi Guys,

I'm new here so firstly hello, I need a bit of advice. I was moving the boxes of assorted junk in the spare room to be able to put the tree back when I found the computer bits box. So I am wondering obviously I will need more bits but is it worth trying to build something from this stuff as a project with my son?
I have a psu, a processor a heat sink that might go with it? Probably a graphics card, a dvd drive, one fan some memory, several hdds and just enough knowledge to be able to think how hard can it be, which is probably bad. Most obviously I am missing a motherboard and some sort of case and the knowledge that any if this stuff is actually compatible with the rest.

So am I mad to even consider this and if not where do I start (by properly identifying the bits I guess)?

Thanks for the help in advance
 
Thanks all i will have a proper look at what I have the bit I am struggling most with is the processor if I post a pic can anyone tell me what it is or how to work it out

Graphics card is an Asus ENGTX550
There are 2x 4GB 1600mHz DDR3 I think
A xfx 8o plus bronze psu
180GB in ssd drives
and a corsair H60
