I am going to be building a desktop computer for the first time.

I have already bought a Micro ATX case.

I made a list on Newegg of what i would like in the computer but not 100% sure if it will all fit in there and work properly.

My limit i would like to go to is $500.00 Tops.

I did not add a sound card in the list,I have a qestion.Do you have to have a sound card in a desktop pc?

Well there is my list if you think there is something better please post it.
I only wanna order from newegg and once again my money limit is $500.00
 
You don't need a sound card, since most motherboards come with a built in sound on the board. Are you looking to get the best parts you can for under 500 dollars? Would you be using it for gaming?
 
The CPU literally sucks. You can get heaps more performance/price. Dual-core is almost a "must", and also I would recommend Intel. Even if you insist on sticking to AMD, you can get a dual-core that performas a lot better for its price.
