New build please look over.

Hi all. I just looked at my last post and I realized my links didn't work so here is a new one with the components listed. Would you please look it over and tell me any recomendation or probelms with this system.

MOBO: Asus P5B deluxe
Graphics card: Geforce 8800 GTS
Ram: Corsair XMS 2gb dual chanel
CPU: core 2 duo E6600
Case: Coolmaster centurion 5
PSU: Antec smartpower 2
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 7200.10
Pri Optical:Pioneer DVR-112D
Moniter: Dell Ultrasharp 24 inch flat panel

Do I need anything besides this + a Keyboard Mouse. Do I need Thermal paste. Do I need any fans. Are my choices for RAM HDD and CPU. Thanks A lot

The E6600 will come with a pad of thermal paste preapplied to the heatsink. Usually does OK. Get a SATA LITE-ON Optical Drive - retail. The 320mb version 8800GTS will give you all that you need. You can save some money by just getting CORSAIR VALUE SELECT PC5300 - 2gigs. It's all that you need. System will fly. Looks good so far. Call us if you need us.

This is like the 4th or 5th thread you've started regarding this new build. Please don't start another one.

Your parts selection looks good.

You don't need thermal compound or case fans. The retail Intel CPU will come with a thermal pad on the heatsink and the Cooler Master case already has fans installed in it.
