Hey Everyone,
I have a plan to build myself a PC and just thought it would be a good idea to list the components here. This will be my first time ever building a PC so any suggestions would be appreciated. But, most importantly if any of the components don't work with each other. Heres my list (with links):

I would go higher than the 8600GT, and get a Creative sound card. Great choice of motherboard. And you don't need an aftermarket heatsink, I would suggest it though.

Get one of these cases, Rosewill is cheap...

What kind of power supply? I would suggest this

You missed a power supply other than that is k, but i agree get a creative card instead, a G5 instead of that microshit mouse and you don't need the saitek neither is that good as to spend 40$ on it, if you can get the E6550 instead of the E4400

Damn, I did forget to paste a link for the power supply. I was thinking of getting a 600-650w supply. Is that powerful enough?

and yeah, i'll get the G5 haha

And do I have to get a heatsink that matches my processor? (Such as one that matches the lga 775 format)

Look at my signature, I run an 8800GTX off of one... These Corsair(relabled Seasonic PSU's) run true to wattage unlike most others.
