thanks for the help

If you have any reconditions on other parts please tell.

Welcome to PCMech.

Compatible, yes. Can you do much better? Big yes.

Are completely wedded to AMD? The Intel Core 2 Duo chips outperform everything from AMD right now. We recommend a setup with an Asus P5B motherboard, E6300 CPU and 1GB Corsair VS DDR2-667.

If you want to stick with AMD, switch to an Asus board. ECS has a bad reputation.

The power supply is questionable, check out our brand list: http://forum.pcmech.com/showthread.php?t=131195

Do you plan on any gaming? If so, the X550 won't cut it. Go with a Geforce 7600.

Finally, skip the sound card for now. Use the motherboard's onboard sound and upgrade later.

What is your budget, and what does that include?

[laracroftlover]

2,000-2,500 Is my budget, And yes it will be for gaming

[flanzig1]

Hope you have some wiggle room in your budget. Some of the parts in your list are pretty low end stuff.
Mobo: look to Asus
PSU: Haven't heard of Rexus(made by Fore Point Industrial)
Ram: PQI is pretty genaric stuff
Depending on your budget and the intended use of the PC(gaming/basic office/3D/A/V work) probably come up with better parts.

[newbuilder14]

With that kind of money, you can go with a higher end Core 2 Duo system that will beat that AMD setup by a longshot.

Look at the E6600 processor, an Asus P5B-E or P5B Deluxe motherboard, 2GB of Corsair ValueSelect DDR2-667 memory (XMS2 if you're overclocking - CAS5), a Seagate 7200.10 hard drive, a high quality power supply, and a GeForce 7600GT video card to hold you over until DX10.

[laracroftlover]

ok i will go with "Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 Conroe 2.13GHz 2M shared L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor" is that a good one.

[laracroftlover]

ok, my new list is,

[flanzig1]

Usually we say go with the E6300 if budget limited and the E6600 if budget permits. These 2 provide the best bang for the buck depending on budgets.

[newbuilder14]

Motherboard: Good

Memory: I'd actually recommend the DDR2-667 memory as that is what is recommended here for mild or no overclocks: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145098 - it is at an excellent price.

Hard Drive: Stay away from ATA, get the faster, newer technology, SATA of the same drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822148144

Power Supply: Never heard of them, go with something such as this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139001 - it is very highly recommended here and said to be able to run any single video card on the market now.

Video Card: Go with an eVGA card, PNY is okay, but eVGA is very reputable: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130017

now time for the case will the Thermaltake Armor Series VA8000BWS Black Aluminum / Steel ATX Full Tower Computer Case work for my pc, or other.

[freakitchen]

Top choices there.

You're still missing an optical drive (I'd recommend a Lite-on SATA Retail DVD-RW), and an operating system.

The case is very much a personal choice. The Armor will work just fine.
