Looks pretty good. You'll need an OS too. XP Home OEM would do. Also, if you get the Retail version of that drive you'll get a copy of Nero - or all LITE-ON burners come with Nero.

That's almost the exact same build I did 4 months ago. I have the A8N-E mobo instead, but I'm not sure exactly what the difference is. My CPU is the 3000+, and it's plenty fast enough. The only thing I might suggest, if this is for gaming, is to get another gig of memory. Games like Battlefield 2 really use it. This build will play any game currently out at max settings, so I think you'll be happy. I know I am.

Oh yeah i forgot about the OS. Thanks for reminding me. I guess ill get the XP Home then. Hmm didn't know about getting Nero for retails. I'll be looking into that and Lite-On. Thanks |

Nice build, almost like mine, except i decided to get the DFI LANparty, I'll move up to 2GB of Crucial Ballistix later, but i'm settling for 1 just to build ASAP, i'm also settling for a 6800GS, but with eVGA's step-up program i'll have 90days to save up for a 7800GT or GTX
