Oh, shame you won't be using it for any gaming.

That would be a nice set-up for gaming a long with an 8800GT 512mb :)

Anyway, what are you using it for?

what i would do is drop 2gb of ram and get an e8400....but you dont realy need too.

2gb is enough if your not gaming,and imean you could always upgrade to another 2gb later if need be ;)

but that build looks great :)

I wouldn't plan on using that psu that comes with your case. Pretty crappy IMO, even on a non-gaming system. A 450W psu would be just fine in that system as long as it was decent. With 18amps total on one rail, that doesn't help it's case any either.

If you don't have a better psu to use in place of it, I'm sure ppl here would be more than willing to help. About as cheap as you can get for a halfway decent psu would be around $35 for the Hec Orion 2.01 585W. Past that, I would need more details on your budget, any possibilities for case alternatives, etc.

Other than that, your system looks very nice. :)

I wouldn't get that ram.

I never heard of A data before.

Wheres the video card? Id also get a seperate psu as the ones included are often of bad quality and a psu that fails can take out other hardware which sucks.

You will need a video card since that mobo doesn't have onboard. Since this system won't be for any gaming, you can make do with a cheap one.

Ignore the post about the A-Data memory, it is just fine. Just bc he hasn't heard about it doesn't mean anything.
