My first build...

ramodkk · 12-13-2006, 12:55 AM

Is this a good build for a decent gaming PC?? (i already have case, Thermaltake 430W PSU, 120 GB SATA HDD and all perhiperals (heyboard, mouse...)

MOBO: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128017
CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819115005
RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145566
(this RAM is 1.9v, according to the mobo it only supports 1.8v RAM, what can happen if i install 1.9v on it??)
GPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814122012

TOTAL: aprox. $675 us

Thanks in advance...

Good build, the memory will run at 1.8v, you can change the voltage of the memory in the BIOS.

Thanks! you're the first one to give me a quick good answer to my RAM question... now i know what rig to get... THANKX!!

Are you using the computer soley for gaming?
This is just my suggestion but i would trade off for a less expensive graphic card and get 2GB ram

What resolutions will you be playing games at? the 7600GT is a good card. It can play 1280x1024 at med-high settings. I'd get the 2gigs of ram. I have that ram you linked and it works great.
