Hallo,
I'd like to build up a new PC in the next few days. I think I will order the following components:

- Athlon 64 3200+ Venice
- (Thermalright XP-120 Heatsink + Papstfan)???
- Gigabyte GA-K8N Ultra-9
- 2048MB DDRRAM MDT PC400 TwinPack 2x1GB
- Powercolor Radeon X800 GT, 256MB GDDR3
- Samsung SP2004C
- LG GSA-4167B
- case ???
- power supply ??? (Seasonic S12-430 430W ATX 2.0 ???-quiet,solid)

What do you think about this system, what have you got for suggestion? How powerful shall the power supply for such a PC? (TV-Karte, 2 hard disks, 2 DVD drives and a soundkarte are added)

Yours,
Thomas
 
Wattage isn't worth anything. For a PSU, try maybe http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817104154.
That is a pretty good PSU; it has modular cables and a 26A on the 12v rail. Oh yea, and why did you choose the X800GT? I though GT was the "light" version for the Radeon cards... It would be better to get the pro version.

The PSU above isn't exactly really good. It only has 22A on the 12V rail. It's not bad, but if you decide to get SLI later on or maybe even Crossfire, I'm not sure 22A would be able to handle it. Plus, it only has 1 SATA connector and no PCI-e connector for your GPU (but yes, you can use a molex-PCIe connector.
