Yes.
That's not it, though! I'd like to make some suggestions if I could. Motherboard: Good, but I like the DG965WH board instead. Processor: Okay, but for me it is either the E6300 or E6600. Memory: Pretty expensive, and you cannot overclock with an Intel board anyway so why get premium memory? Corsair ValueSelect or Kingston ValueRam is what you want. HD: Awesome. Graphics: Good, pretty top notch for a placeholder, though. Drives: What's there to say? I'd suggest a retail drive so you get software, though. Power supply: Good choice.

wow quickest reply ever thanks! I was wondering why you would choose the e6300 or e6600? and are there other motherboards that support core 2 duo that are in the similiar price range?

I think the e6400 only appeals to overclockers - the extra speed doesn't warrant such price differences in my opinion.
The only other motherboard I'd recommend is an Asus P5B. It will work great paired with Corsair ValueSelect DDR2-667 memory, XMS2 DDR2-800 if you're overclocking, |
