Ok. A few changes I would make.

Ram: Get some corsair 2x1gb ddr2 800 cas 5

Haven't heard much good about samsung drives, usually it's recommended that you get a Seagate drive. look at the 7200.10 or 7200.11 series.

That power supply is on the bad list, A good power supply would be the corsair 520hx.

And look at the Lite-On dvd burners. If you get a retail one, then you get nero with it (and not just a trial version).

And newegg is a great site to order from.

Turokk, I've combined your threads so we can follow along.

We always recommend building instead of buying. You won't get the same kind of bang for the buck from a premade machine.
