420W Power Supply
[Socket-AM2] AMD Athlon™64 3500+ CPU w/ HyperTransport Technology
Certified CPU Fan and Heatsink

160 GB HARD DRIVE
16X Dual Format/Double Layer DVD±R/±RW + CD-R/RW Drive
3D Premium Surround Sound Onboard

Professional wiring for all cables inside the system tower

Thats a good build pretty much the same as mine. The motherboard is a good one no problems with it at all. and i would get the 3800+ instead of the 3500+. And what brand 7600GT are you getting.
