My first build. Have some questions...

Well, I'm tired of the crappy 1.6GHz P4 that I have in my Dell PC now and I need a whole new computer.

The stats for my build are in this picture(Prices are in Canadian):

If links are needed to a certain part, I will gladly provide the link.

My goals with this new PC is to run Counter Strike Source, Battlefield 2, and Unreal Tournament 2004 smoothly on medium to high settings with a resolution of 1024x768. Also some light multitaksing, like chatting, surfing the web, doing some work tasks, and listening to music at the same time.

Here are my questions:
Does everything fit together?

Do you think the price is too high for the PC? Do you know better prices for certain parts in Canadian? Or American that will ship to Canada?

Will this PC reach my goals?

How will this PC look in 2 years from now?

Is there enough cooling for my PC to run just fine?

Is the PSU fine for my needs? (30A on the +12V)

Do you think anything needs to be changed? Any other reccomendations?

Thanks for all help in advance!

That's a nice system. That will definitely meet your goals, Your cooling options are fine, the PSU should work, although more amperage never hurts if you have a couple extra dollars, and give a look at Computer Spec under the canadian section, it will give you advice for your budget:

Thanks for that! I just found another site for buying my parts! An AMD Athlon 3700+ at canadacomputers.com is $100 less than tigerdirect Thats awesome!:D
