Looking For Help On First Build

OK whats up everyone... i am a noob i thought i should get that out of the way. well i no things about computers like hdd ram and alll that stuff but this will be my first build. i will give u a detailed list of what items i have picked out and in return i would like for someone or people to tell me if these parts will fit. if they will fit but u think i should use something else of equal or more value let me know and i probally will use that instead. at the moment i am buying things from www.newegg.com. oh also if there will be anyother new things out there in mid july to early august let me know. primarily because im waiting for the price cut of the intel quad core processor.

if possible i would like the pc to be cheaper and definately not higher. so if theres another website other than newegg.com let me know so i can get the best deal.

that is the end
but i have a couple of request. i already no that the video card i requested only supports DDR3 memory and the motherboard only excepts DDR2. But thats a pretty good idea on price i want for the whole thing. so if u can find a motherboard that will use DDR3 and a quad proccessor let me know. or vice versa if u find a good i dont want crappy i mean eye blistering good DDR2 video card also let me know.
So in the end what im asking is for some person who knows what there doing to read my PC i want to build and tell me if all the parts will work together and if they dont what will? i want a good gaming computer so let me know. please

Agreed! I just bought one for a friend. Tested it, it was awesome! and cooler master case, ive heard some bads about them.
 
ok heres my look, GOOD CPU, but why dont you cut the mobo. 329.99 IS ALOT FOR only 667 ram. BUMP IT UP TO DDR2 800 and find a lower cost mobo like this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813188013

Also dont get the radeon 2900. GET A Nvidia 8800 gtx or GTS.

a 50 dolla case? that case will be flimsy. get this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811133040

or this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146018

ALSO VIDEO CARD RAM HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE MOTHERBOARD. ITS IT OWN UNIT

What happens with Cooler Master Case??

I have had some cooler master products (HSF, cases ad stuff) and their stuff aint that good....


If your buying a SLI mobo get a SLI capable card

Scalable Link Interface (SLI) is a brand name for a multi-GPU solution developed by NVIDIA for linking two (or more) video cards together to produce a single output. SLI is an application of parallel processing for computer graphics, meant to increase the processing power available for graphics. With SLI, it is possible to theoretically double the power of your graphics solution just by adding a second video card with an identical GPU.

The name SLI was first used by 3dfx under the full name Scan-Line Interleave, which was introduced in 1998 and used in the Voodoo2 line of graphics accelerators. When 3dfx collapsed financially, its intellectual property was purchased by NVIDIA. NVIDIA later reintroduced the SLI name in 2004 and intends for it to be used in modern computer systems based on the PCI Express (PCIe) bus. However, the technology behind the name SLI has changed dramatically.
