Hi!
In the next few hours i will buy these parts for a gaming/music computer:

Case:In-Win Fanqua Midi Tower
CPU:Intel Core™ i5 Quad Processor i5-750 2,66GHz, Socket LGA1156,
Motherboard:Gigabyte GA-P55-USB3, P55, Socket-1156
RAM:Crucial DDR3 1066MHz 4GB KIT
Harddrive:Samsung SpinPoint F3 500GB
DVD:Sony NEC Optiarc DVD±RW burner AD-7240S
Graphics Card:MSI Radeon HD 5770 1GB GDDR5 "HAWK"
PSU:Corsair VX 550W PSU
Screen:BenQ 24" LCD G2420HDB

Will I need more fans? Is the PSU good enough? I Would be VERY happy for any reply.
I will also buy the Deathadder, and an Ace Keyboard KUC500 With USB-Hub.
 
thats a nice build right there my man. I would do a couple of things however. The case you have chosen is not very good. I would go with an antec 900 or 1200. The thermaltake v9 is also very good. Get 2 gigs more of ram for a total of 6 so u can run in triple channel. Finally up the psu to a corsair hx650W. more power and a modular power supply for only a bit more equals win!
 
The 1156 socket does not run 3 ch. It is 2 ch.

How much are you paying for that stuff, and where? I would get faster RAM speed since it probably will cost the same.

If you think that you might want to CF the GPU I would get a diff MOBO and PSU. The 4 series from Gigabyte does 8x8 instead of yours are 16x4. The 650TX would have more power for close to the same price. That or just get a 5850 card and be happy, a lot faster than the 5770 (but it cost more). Edit, I took a really fast look at that MOBO and I dont think it has Sata 6 or USB3. You can find one that does at near the same price.

Computers are tough, you are spending a lot but for a little more you get more. It is a never ending game.
