Your links are all broken, for me anyways, it is best to list the items instead of posting mystery links, the experts here know the products without having to open 6 different pages.

There is no such thing as a quality 600 watt power supply for only 45 bucks. That system does not need 600 watts, so you should get a higher quality unit with lower power. A 9500GT only requires a quality 350 watt power supply.

The power supply is total refuse, do you plan on gaming? That card is weaker than circus lemonde.
Here is a power supply for you http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817371016 or what glc recommended!! In that budget your better off with this video card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-329-_-Product Everything else looks good |

OH, my question about the disc drive, right now on the comp im on, i know its connected IDE as well and my HDD,
when i get the new system, and set the HDD up with Sata will that make me have to go through a bunch of loop holes to get the disc drive to work since it will still be IDE? |

The type of memory a video card uses has nothing to do with the motherboard.
Recommendation: Do this prior to installing any components in the case. PROBLEMS with a NEW BUILD? Try This!! |
