1. PSU prolly sucks
2. What HSF do you have? (stock?)
3. Specifications on the RAM?

Please Rate My Computer
I'd give it 6/10
The power supply, if it's what I think it is, only has 18A on the 12v rail, making future upgrading tricky. Hard drive is a bit small, but depends what you want to put on it. Heatsink & fan a bit iffy, other than that it's ok. Nice case by the way ;)

Id rate it an 8/10. I dont know why everone things that just because its a stock PSU it wont work good. I've always used stock psu's and my computer have always worked fine, they dont overheat, they dont freeze up, they dont slow down, games run great, ect. The other parts look good also for a mid-range gaming computer. My friend also has the PCI-E 6600GT 128mb, he plays FarCry at the highest settings.

not that it's a stock PSU -- that its most likely a peice of crap stock PSU. perhaps you should have a look at the PSU 101 for a complete explaination .

This was my budget for making a computer for myself. It was all I could afford at the time. Eventually. when I get the money, I could get a better power supply if thats what you think my computer needs most. Also, for me, the 80gb hard drive is more than enough. I don't plan on putting a ton of stuff on my computer.
