CPU- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819103547
Mobo- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813131570
HD- WD 140gig
Vid Card- Ati Radeon 9800 pro, eventually upgrade to nvidia 7800gt http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814130256
Ram- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820145575

The one thing I am worried about is it overheating
Comments are welcome and any advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hmmm

Fix your links As to the graphics card, the 7800GT is a PCI-Express card while the 9800Pro is an AGP card. That would not work.

As to the graphics card, the 7800GT is a PCI-Express card while the 9800Pro is an AGP card. That would not work.

The motherboard that hes getting is a PCI-E, so you couldnt use the 9800Pro in there.

 

[skillzdatkillz]

yea...thats why im upgrading to 7800gt, is there anything I can do to cut down on heat on the inside?

your PC wont work at all with the 9800 pro, you would need to get the enw card at the time of build if you want to use your PC.

[skillzdatkillz]

Yep...so any suggestions on how to cool it down?

[skillzdatkillz]
