Advice on New build
http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16811119116
Cooler Master Mystique RC632KKN1GP $125.00 http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16813121048 Intel BOXDG965RYCK Socket T LGA 775 $117.00 http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16814130061 eVGA 512-p2-n635 GeForce 7950GT 512MB GDDR3 $298.00 http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16817103932 Antec Tru Power 550 $97.00 http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16819115003 Intel Core 2 Duo Conroe E6600 $320.00 http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16820145098 Corsair Value Select 2GB $230.00 http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16822148140 320 GB Seagate Barracuda with Perpendicular Recording Technology ST3320620AS $95.00 http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16827106019 Lite On DVD Burner with LightScribe $33.00 http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16827106028 Lite On DVD Rom $18.00 Total 1328.00 This is my first build attempt so please be patient. This is also my first post, so if I apoligize in advance if I did something wrong. I will use this primarily for gaming, but also to store pictures and music, E-mail and Internet access. I will have a monitor, keyboard and mouse shortly, so I don't need advice on those. Any advice on the quality of these products, compatibility issues, anything I could purchase that would be better but keep the price around where it is now for the components listed, would be appreciated. Thanks! |

What about an OS? Win XP Home OEM is about $90 on Newegg.
You don't need the EPS12V version of that power supply...the regular Truepower II would work. I believe the difference is a 8pin 12V connector on the EPS and a 4 pin on the regular. Looking at the pictures, the motherboard takes a 4 pin. The 8 pin version should be backwards compatible, but I think the regular version is a few bucks cheaper.

I will be obtaining Windows XP Home edition. I will change the power supply as suggested. Any other glaring problems?

I recommend DDR2 800 RAM, something like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145590
That is the standard for your motherboard. Other than that, no problem.
