New Build Parts

[RenegadeKing]

Hey, haven't posted for a while. I've been away from the whole computer building thing for a while so I'm not really up to date on the latest stuff. My brother wants a new computer so I did some research and picked out parts for him. Everything has changed since I did this last so I'm not 100% sure, so I'll run the list by here so you guys can check the parts, let me know if anything isn't compatible or if I'm missing anything. We are hoping to get this bought today (all from Newegg). Thanks a lot

PS. he wants to keep using a 160 gb PATA drive that he already has (in addition to the new 40 gb sata drive), so that's why I got the PATA to SATA converter, which I think I will use on the DVD burner, and put the 160gb on the native IDE. Unless there isn't a problem with putting both the burner and 160gb on the same channel? There is only one IDE channel on this motherboard.

Here's the list:

Hmm, just checked that converting thing, never heard of such a thing, but if it works, well that'd be good. If not you can get a $20 IDE controller card to run the hard drive on.

That's actually a really good idea, I didn't even think of that. And I would trust it a lot more than some weird thing in a cardboard backed plastic box with engrish all over it

Ok scratch the PATA to SATA thing, I'll get this instead:

PROMISE ULTRA100TX2 PCI IDE Controller Card - OEM

So everything else complete and compatible? Thanks.
