hello guys ! This is my first attempt to build im from europe so i dont have any access to newegg :mad: but ill based my pricing in dollars and links in newegg for easier understanding., firstly my 5 year old computer broke down so i decided to buy or built a new one., im a little bit on the noob side on building computer so i really need your help guys. Im building my computer ASAP (2-3 weeks frame work)

firstly i would be using my computer for internet., dvd/cd burning and few games (i play americas army and battlefield 2)., i know i dont need a high end PC but i want a little future proof coz i want to keep this between 3-5 years., i have a budget of 550 euro thats about 800 USD so if i can still use the other parts in my old PC the better (im planning to use my floppy, dvd rom, hard disk) the problem is they are all ide and new ones use sata cable. anyway heres my spec. the bottom link is from austria BTW pardon my english:)

1. CPU - Intel E6750 do i need this or E6450 is enough?

This looks like a fine build...

For the mobo, I suggest the Gigabyte one. For the video card, I suggest one which is a bit more powerful, I would advise against going for anything lower than the 8800GS, the 9600GT or the HD3850. The cards I listed are just there for reference, the brand doesn't matter to that point.

Besides that, I am not too sure about those PSU, are they from reliable brands ? I have never heard of either. Its very well regarded to spend a bit more to get a good PSU. Besides that it seems quite fine. For the CPU, I assume u meant the E6550... I would say it depends on the price difference. Come back to us telling us to how much all of this adds up to in euro.
