Here's my intended parts list for mid-range home pc. Not much gaming or vid requirements so I've left out graphics card but may add one in later if the need arises. I'm hoping to place an order in the next couple of hours.:eek: Any last minute issues I should address and is there anything else I must add to my list?

Intel i5 2500 CPU
ASUS P8Z68 V-LX Motherboard
Windows 7 64bit OEM
G Skill Ripjaws 2x2G DDR3 RAM 1600MHz
Seagate Barracuda 1T HDD SATAIII, 7200rpm, 32Mb cache
Samsung DVD-RW
Antec Neo Eco 520W PSU
Coolermaster Elite 331 case
 
if you'd like to save some, for what you want a corsar cx430 or the 450w neo will be more than enough and you will still be able to get a low/medium level gpu like the 5670 i believe will work with those and anything below it.
 
I decided to go for a slightly bigger PSU "just in case" I do more upgrades later on than I currently anticipate.

I've ordered everything on my list and hope to pick them up in a couple of hours, but now I'm wondering if there were any other bits I should have added that may not come with the parts like motherboard feet for example.

BTW johnny thanks for all your help it's been very much appreciated.:)
 
if you mean the stand-offs from the case then they come with the case, all that stuff does, all yo ned for assembley is a phillips head and some common sense, or a few hours with a bs manual, the common sense only takes like 20 max and then just the windows installation.
 
OK thanks mate. I've done plenty of tinkering in the past but this is my first full build so hopefully all goes well.
