All Compatible

Hi I am planning on building my second PC. As i have just moved to a much warmer climate and experienced many problems with my old Pc over heating. Plus just want a new better computer. I have just started University and am studying Information technology and have been told that i will be using my computer for multimedia etc. I do a little video editing and some gaming. I am mainly just wanting to make sure that all the parts selected are Compatable and if i could make any changes that would give me a better bang for $ .

CASE: silverstone tj05

PSU: Enermax EG701AX-VE (W)SFMA Noisetaker 600W

MOBO: AUS p5wd2 premium with WIFI TV pci card boxed

CPU: Intel Pentium D 930 DUAL CORE Processor - 3.0Ghz EMT64 XD SPEEDSTEP 2x2MB L2 CACHE LGA775 800FSB w/ Virtualization

HDD: 2X Western Digital Raptor 74GB 10000 RPM 8MB Serial ATA (Raid 0)

RAM: "OCZ DDR2 1Gb Value PRO PC2-4200/533Mhz Kit
512Mbx2 1024Mb "

Vid Card: Asus Extreme AX850PRO/HTVD

WATER COOLING: Asetek*WaterChill KT12AT/10mm CPU/VGA/Chipset High-End Kit for Intel LGA775 (Socket T), 120mm Radiator

i am also wanting to make sure that this water cooling kit will work well with my setup. And also is this Kit the small tubing or the Big tubing? Don't know that much about water cooling but would prefer the smaller tubing.

All the extras that I havn't mentioned I already have.

Thanks

That watercooling setup will void the warranty on a boxed processor. See if you can find that processor as OEM (just the processor, no heatsink/fan included)

That RAM isn't on the Asus compatibility list. Here is what the configurator at OCZ lists.
