It will all depend on the quality of parts and the amount of money you would like to spend. Seeing that you are a new member I would suggest that you start by looking through all of the information in the Equipment Reference section of this site, then look through the Proton Packs section of the forums, paying attention to some of the great build threads, which should help you decide what you would like to do. Once you know what kind of parts you want check out the Shop here, or the For Sale section in the threads to find parts. All the information you need to research, buy, and build is here, you just need to spend some time looking through it all. And believe me, it is a lot. Finally please always use the search function before posting a lot of generic questions or "how do I do this" and "where do I get that" topics. There are a lot of new members that post questions like that before doing any independent research and a 2 minute search will find you all the answers. People who don't use the search function first or won't do any research of their own don't make many friends. If there are any specific questions you have after researching please feel free to ask them as there are many people willing to help.
I spent a good 3 months researching and reading through old threads to just decide what kind of pack I wanted to start building and have been collecting parts for almost a year. It takes a lot of time and money but is definitely fun. Hope this helped.
