k, so i went with a 250gb seagate for just like 13more. free shipping so its pretty on par pricewise with the 160gb.
 
Personally I would pick a different brand hard drive. Either Seagate or Samsung. Also that video card is now seen deactivated, did you link the wrong card?
 
Nope,i already have the radeon bought and in my current computer, i just figured i'd link that and the dvdrw for reference purposes.

I personally will suggest intel set-up, however, for AMD, Athlon X2 5000+ Black Edition is good choice.

HDD: Personally not suggesting Hitachi. Get a Seagate instead.
