I plan on using the onboard sound for awhile. Speakers, mouse, keyboard, monitor already accounted for. I plan to OC the dual core Pentium. Computer will be used for gaming, music, dvds, internet, etc. Pretty much everything under the sun. Next year I will be an engineering student so I can imagine some intense applications. All products are straight from NEWEGG.COM.

Looks like a very good build. I have the Freezer 7 Pro and PD 930 and i must say, im rather impressed with it's performance, and that it has an idle temp of around 25C, and load temp of around 35C.
 
Underworld, I am just looking for opinions, comments, and/or switches to any of the parts I have selected.

Thanks for the info, Omega, now I am positive this is the fan for me.
 
I will be an engineering student next year, so all related applications. Also gaming, dvds, music, internet, etc. Everything really. Just looking for a strong, cost efficient build to last me a while. How did I do?

Fine, I mean there is no doubt that AMD is better for gaming. But based on you username and other needs, I guess Intel looks the best.
