My First Computer build

:cool::eek:Here is the List of the computer (build)


http://secure.newegg.com/NewVersion/Shopping/shoppingcart.asp?submit=view



Total:__$1,622.79__


Note there will be no monitor at the moment I just recently recieved a Magnavox television that has an output that allows it to be the monitor of the PC. will someone take a look at the item under ECT and tell me if it will fit to the Tower of the Computer i just built and i will be playing microsoft flight simulator x on it along with the sims 2 and expansions. if you play flight simulator x also you no how it lags on the performance. so let me know if this rig will alow the game to run at its greatest potential.:D:P:o:):(:confused::mad::rolleyes:



Feel Free to add on or give sugestions on whether or not it is good.
this is my first pre put together computer

sorry for the links everyone i fixed them and instead of each part i made a link of the whole shopping cart so check it out and if it doenst work ill do it the long why by just telling you what each piece is..
 
Almost everything seems good, i would rather recommend you gettign 2x1gb ram x2 rather than 2x2gbs since you will find much better ram and you'll save cash as well, get a better mother board ECS sucks as a medium/high end brand and if i were you i would wait till july 22 and get the E6850
 
Haha you know whats funny? Thats EXACTLY what the build I made last month was, part for part. I say EXCELLENT choice!
 
Haha I'm an idiot. The link you gave is exclusive to your own basket. The reason I thought our comps were the same is because my newegg basket was set at my comp. Lol. Anyway, needless to say...the link doesn't work.
 
Well these are my immediate thoughts...take them or leave them.

Do you plan on doing sli? If not, don't get an sli board.
Get a lite-on burner rather than the samgung.
I still think for that money you'd be better off with the 8800GTX..its the best card out right now in that range.
If you just plan to use those stereo speakers, theres no need for a $130 sound card. Just use on-board audio (I do!).
Good processor choice.
Use the extra money from no sound card and get an Antec 900 case.
I'd also go with an Antec truepower 650v power supply.
I'd just get 2 of these and save $100. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231098

Thats what I see so far. Lemme know what you think.
 
You know i know nothing about computers im learning this will be first build so why dont you create a pc that i can build but with u suggested if u like what i had keep it if not then chuck it ive got nothing but time and not to mention i would really like to cut the price down a bit. also what is sli???
 
SLi is when you use two video cards instead of one. Give me a price range and I'll try and put together something real quick.
 
sweet you know i want sli i dont even no why but that cool.
umm
do the best you can with an excellent video card the one you picked out and hb
15 to 16 hundred dollars
 
One more question...do you need everything? I mean including monitor, mouse, keyboard, operating system? BTW I wouldn't really suggest SLi...its not THAT much of an upgrade unless you wanna spend over a grand on just 2 GTXs.
 
o hell no no sli then
i need mouse, keyboard, mouse
printer(does not need to be expensive) cheap is ok
lets play around with the monitor im not sure yet
you see i just got a magnavox tv that i can make a monitor im not sure if i want it. this pc if for school im going to boarding school on the east coast. they dont require to much software other than standard so yes i want keyboard, mouse printer(cheap) monitor(maybe) windows vista home premium and microsoft office student addition
