Nvidia GeForce 7600 GS OC 256MB (PCI-e x16)

Could you give the links to those components and where are you buying from? Also, What is you budget? Do you want operating system, speakers, keyboard, monitor, and mouse included in budget?
 
well if your gonna put a graphics card in you should get a case with a power supply of 450w or more. Also if your gonna be using this for gaming or multitasking you should get 1GB RAM (2 x 512mb) for better performance. Other than that everything else seems good.

Though watts do not mean everything. When we know your budget then we will get down to business. Anyways though like he said the minimum you should get ram wise is 1 gig.

I would get more ram if your going to do gaming your going to need 1 gig and never by a case with a powersupply cause the powersupplys in there are usually not very good and is that a althon 64 3000+ or what is it i would try and go dual core but if you cant go with socket AM2 and get a 3500+ or 3800+.
 
well thanks guys... i already have monitor, mouse, keyboard, speakers and Windows XP PRO. thanks for de advice, i'll change the case that includes the PSU, and buy them separately, also i'll buy 2x512 ram. Thanks...
