Please review my build
I am currently working on a build. Here is my list:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 Retail CPU cooler: Xigmatek 1283 Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-EP45-DS3R LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail GPU: SAPPHIRE 100243L Radeon HD 4870 512MB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card - Retail Memory: CORSAIR 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model TWIN2X4096-6400C5 - Retail Hard disk: Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 ST3750330AS 750GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM Case: LIAN LI PC-60BPLUSII Power: CORSAIR CMPSU-650TX 650W ATX12V / EPS12V Power Supply - Retail DVD Burner: Samsung SH-S203N Artic Silve 5 Thermal Compound Would this work? Do you see any potential problem? I may try to overclock this new system in a few months from now after the system is built and stable Does the Xigmatek 1283 fit into the Lian-Li? I also read about the HD 4870 can get pretty hot. Should I get a GPU cooler as well? Thanks |

Looks good.
Not sure if that cooler will fit. Might want to look at the thermalright ultima-90. Smaller then most, and does a better job then most too. I would look at either an Asus or Lite-On dvd burner. Get a sata and retail version to get the software. Seagate 7200.11 500gb sata drives are the sweet spot right now. You may want to look at depending on budget. I wouldn't get a gpu cooler. You might want to consider a q6600 if you want a quad and will overclock. They are quite a bit cheaper as well. Don't forget an OS.
