I am building a computer mainly for flight sim, not too worried about being able to use high settings just want it to work smoothly.
Any suggestions to cut cost or if anything is junk would be appreciated.

The memory isn't compatible with your motherboard (correct me if I'm wrong but the motherboard specs say it only supports DDR2 800). You need DDR2 800 memory and you have DDR2 667 memory picked out.

You might want to consider something like this:

or even pay the extra $30 and get this:

His motherboard will support anything from ddr2400 to ddr2800.... So it WILL support the 667.
