cd/dvd drive

Total: 736.90

my questions are:

is everything compatible with each other?

the graphics card I have chosen is out of stock, can you find me a similar one that is compatible with my mobo?

do you recommend any changes?

Thank you all for all of your never ending help.
 
case:
i'd get a antec 300, better airflow same quality. all depends on your taste though. If you take this you can combine it with your psu to get 30 bucks off. you can take this psu

Sound card:
throw it out, to really have an improvement on onboard sound nowadays you need to spend over 80 bucks

graphics:
about the same is an 4850http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102770

hard disk:
take a look at this one, more capacity same price

cpu:
go for the e8400

This list comes out a little bit higher than yours but it's really worth your while

edit: 2048megabytes beat me to the punch :P his psu is fine to.

What is the best vista version to use for gaming?

Click to expand...

You need a wireless network adapter here's one off newegg. Maybe you want cheaper one that's your choice obviously just giving you an idea of what you need this one is very good though

As far as vista goes, 64-bit vista home premium will do just fine..
