Help me not screw this up
Been researching for months prior to building my first pc. . .probably too much! Hardware chosen is sufficient for my needs/desires. Needed for gaming, photo/video editing, watching DVDs. . .oh yeah, and work. Will be upgrading to Vista Ultimate when available. Will place the hardware order this week and begin build at first of the year.
Please confirm for me that I have no compatibility issues. . . Also, any known issues with these parts going together (i.e., tricks for painless build/install) Case: Gigabyte Posiedon (black) http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16811233006 Mobo: Asus P5B-D http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16813131045 CPU: Core 2 Duo E6600 http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16819115003 PSU: Corsair 520HX http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16817139001 GPU: XFX 7950GT ExTreme http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16814150189 RAM: 2GB Corsair XMS2 PC6400C4 http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16820145034 HDD: Seagate 7200.10 500GB + Seagate 7200.09 250GB (both SATA, no raid) http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16822148136 LCD: ViewSonic VX2035wm widescreen http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16824116066 DVD-RW: Samsung SH-S182M/BEBN 18x (IDE) http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16827151136 Combo: Samsung SH-M5322C/BEBN (IDE) http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16827151086 Floppy: Mitsumi FA404M http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16821104104 KB: MS Natural 4000 http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16823109148 Mouse: Logitech G5 http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16826104191 Sound: Audiology 2 ZS Platinum http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16829102163 Speakers: Logitech X-530 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16836121118 OS: WinXP Pro Office: MS Office 2007 Sorry for the long list but I am starting from scratch. Wish SATA optical drives were available but its a minor issue. Was also considering Antec NeoPowerHE 550W as alternate PSU as it is cheaper but who knows. Any recommendations/critiques welcomed. Thanks. |

That all looks great.
The Lite On DVD burners have been getting better reviews here lately, but I don't know that there's anything wrong with the Samsungs. I'm jealous--NICE system!
