First build, input please
Hey guys here are the components of the pc I want to put together. I am only unsure of three components: the power supply (wattage needed), video card (since I am not a gamer), and RAM (4G of DDR2 800 vs 1066 vs 1100). Just to make a note I am not a gamer at all, just like to have very fast processing,fast video stream, and be able to have many programs open while working with no lag. I already have a hard drive that is 250 gigs and will probably not add another internal on to because I have a 320g external. Thanks for your help feel free to input.

so the 1066 or 1100 is overkill on RAM?
thanks for the find on the PSU didn't find that one originally, looks good for the price as well

ddr2-800 is perfect for the ram. Any higher than that is more for overclocking.
