user/poster INFO/INPUT IS MUCH APPRICIATED

i'd say 7.5

If you were able, i would buy a soundcard, and get a faster processor, around a AMD 64 3400+ oe higher. Besides that, everything else looks good.

 

[Praetor]

420w

whats the make and model (or at least the specs) of the PSU?

cd: lg gwa-4161 16x dvd±r/±rw + cd-r/rw drive dual layer

lg burners tend to be a combination of low quality and have a small featureset
have a look at the CD/DVD 101 for some alternatives

CPU: (939-pin) AMD Athlon64 3000+ CPU w/ HyperTransport technology

what core is this?

powersupply: Thermaltake 480watt power supply

ah i assume this is to replace the one that comes with the case... do make sure the PSU is up to the task see the PSU 101 for an explaination of what to look for

.

 

[eatbutt]

yes the thermaltake is the replacement. i did some research on it and alot of people say its a real good brand that will work just great

how do u know what core ur processor has

and also i caant get a 3400+ cuz that costs like 200 more dollars, but i would if i could =). and im running a 2.4ghzintel right now, so the 3000 will be a big step up that wont need to be upgraded for a while

ill look into that burner
