is that OK??

Thank you,you're really helping me out a lot.But I'm getting crazy...........Want to order tomorrow but more and more I'm looking in to the other case,PSU..it's even more confusing for me.You're really patient with me.

So, as of memory what about Corsair DDR2 667 instead of DDR2 800??
I know 800 its better but it's too much money,maybe If I would go with E6300 then I could buy DDR2 800...

PSU Antec TPII
probably need heatsink in case for overclocking
Case:: I dont know...I just need something with good airflow,dont need lights in there(I wouldnt sleep at night at all) ,maybe something under $100??

Thank you again.

im in the market for a build too and that is a nice looking case! does any1 know if thats a good psu?

I always order a case without supply unless you know there's a good brand name in it already. I made the mistake of ordering with a supply and it lasted all of 3 weeks! :mad: ! Antec and few name brands have their own cases with supply included. A long list of cases can be at the xoxide link posted earlier. They just charge more on shipping then newegg while price shaving. Instead of paying $100 with free shipping you pay $60-70 with $17+ S+H.

I know I can be pain in the ...,but could you help me there one more time (at least for tonight..)
thank you
 
I posted one brand case earlier for $79.95 at xoxide.com that newegg has for $75 with excellent air flow. The xoxide site has plenty of makes and models for gaming builds as well as standard desktops. NZXT also has some rather stylish cases while other are totally see though.

With memory you simply go with what the board will support and run. If you want the fastest then you go with the DDR800. For quality brands like Corsair, Mushkin, Kingston, and OCZ the premium brand are the better names. Antec along with some other brands make reliable supplies. With the newer cards possibly running an SLI or Crossfire setup or adding additional hardwares, drives, etc. a good 450w and above can be advised here.

For OCing and cpu cooling you'll many opinions on makes and types. Besides newegg one site that primarily carries cooling devices is found at http://www.coolerguys.com/cooling.html

downgrade to E6300 so you can get DDR2 800. Besides most of the online articles seem to be where E6300's have OCed higher than E6400.
 
Oh yeahh,that would be nice.I dont really need fastest CPU,just needs to handle video rendering,not even bother with a games.So I'll go with E6300.

Thank you again,especially PC eye.

It's better to buy seperate video card and capture/TV card or just to buy combo??

It's best to buy them separate, the combos usually don't have the best quality.

I would also suggest getting the DDR2 800 and going with the E6300.

I haven't seen combos that work out that well. Originally I went with a usb device on a 98 system that needed a little more support for Windows at that time. The replacement pci slot model is still in ise on another system for a security system setup for video cameras there. The next model has seen use in three builds and is in use at the moment. That's an AVerMedia PCI 350 that has since has been passed by some even better models out. You can look over a few good capture devices at http://www.aver.com/dvd/ezmaker.html
 
I was just saying that it is better to have a separate TV Tuner/PCI video capture card from your graphics card. For instance, don't use a X1900 All-in-wonder to capture high quality video.
 
Wrong there! I was referring to that other brand at the link for Teamgroup Xtreem DDR2 667 not G.Skill seen at the link. That's the first time I've run across that name throughout countless vendors and reviews.

Teamgroup has actually been gaining alot of popularity with OCer's lately, especially the people over at XS. They might be new to the market, but they're definetly not generic value-RAM. Those sets use D9 IC's just like alot of other high-end RAM.

On any case used here the video capture device is always a separate card from the video card. In the event one fails it's a simple matter to swap one out while still keeping the other. Too much packed into any single card/device is never that good regardless of the chip used on a card. Manufacturers simply produce combos to simply it for some cases without the lower number of pci slots now seen on boards. Plus it cuts for those on tight budgets with the extras there.
 
Thank you PC eye,I was looking at the cases from NZXT, I like them,very stylish.
They even come mostly with 400W PSU.Are they good or is still better of buy new one??
 
At this Asus rules while still looking over MSI model boards. Asus has about the best online support readily available and their support staff will respond in a couple of days if you make an inquiry. But like any other brand there will be an occasional bad board or two that gets out. Gigabyte has some powerful micro atx boards to look at with some models. But those are mainly AMD not Intel there. (AMD seems to have a fan club around here. :P )
