1:
CPU: AMD or Intel -- you're the boss when building you own.

Step 2:
The motherboard is critical in the performance of computer -- often more
so than the CPU. Don't go with a motherboard with a "bottleneck" design
or low-quality chipset. Unlike pre-made PCs, this is one
of the many areas of custom-building computers that the designer has full
control over (and can really take advantage of). Choose only precision-engineered
motherboards...like those by Soyo...
 I have used from models from Asus and
BiosStar, preferring the latter. See all the latest 
motherboards
at prices you simply get from retail stores (or the guarantees or after-sale
customer service from "computer shows")
