I am mainly going to be using this computer for gaming. I already have a monitor, keyboard, and mouse. I am probably going to get another stick of memory later on. Are there any better parts I could get without spending much more money? This is going to be my first time building a computer so I really don't know what I'm doing. Any comments would help.

Definetly pick up another gig of ram, you might be bottlenecked there. I haven't seen much reviews on the 7950GT, so I can't cmoment on that, but the x1900xtx has a real beefy mail in rebate!! Looks like a good rounded gaming rig.

 

[Hi Wolf]

Thanks, I'm probably going to get another gig of ram in a month or two after buying all the parts since I'm already over my budget by 100$. I'm most worried about if the ram is compatible with the motherboard, and if the case and PSU are any good since I know nothing about PSU's and cases.

PSU is fne,rosewill psus are usually pretty good.The case is eh,its a mid case so its small.And he cant get another gig of ram atm due to his budget,what i personaly would do is downgrade to an e6400 and get a 2nd gig because the only difference between the e6400 and the e6600 is the stock speed and the e6600 has 2mb more cache.

EDIT:And get the X1900XTX,its cheaper and its the superior graphic card.

 

[Hi Wolf]

Thanks for the replies. Any other suggestions or comments? If not I'm probably going to order this in a couple days.
