this is wut im going to buy

sure you dont wanna get the 250gb with 16mb cache instead? also see if newegg carries a new motherboard, that one is refurbished, it is okay as long as it works but it might not come with the accessories. oh yeah the video card is out of stock.
 
PC2700 is a big mistake. You'll want PC3200 at the least, 2GB is great.

Where's your power supply? And do you have an operating system?
 
With that I would probably get an enermax PS, Raidmax's power supplies are cheap, I can't comment on the quality, but I wouldnt trust it with such an expensive system. Also, why an x2 cpu?? is this for gaming?? if so, you won't really see an increase yet to justify the extra $ spent.. maybe get just a regular skt 939 a64 and upgrade when the x2 is supported more, by that time, they'll probably be cheaper & faster
 
maybe i can buy 3500+ or something right?

cuz i changed my Ram, OCZ 1GB (*2) Dual, and price is now 1600.

gotta make it 1500 so..

What am i gonna buy? can u tell me? ;)
 
I know over the weekend CompUSA was selling Antec Super LANBOY cases for $30 after MIR.. not sure if that is still on or not, if you have a local one.. give them a call??

btw, raidmax isn't bad, you can probably run that PS for a little while, you just gotta know that when you start getting crashes it is time for a new one.. I actually run a Raidmax on one of my PC's, check here to see pics & specs :D

that doesn't mean it will work flawlessly at all, it may crash right away... but if you can, stick to enermax or antec atleast, for case/PS combos, those are a couple reasonably priced ones. Bare miinimum if you are to use a supplied PS would be something like a Thermaltake combo, they arent the best... but they have had a pretty good track record so far despite all the hatred towards them entering the case/PS combo scene. I run a 420w included PS on one of my PC's with an a64 3000+ and a 6600GT, yours will be a lot more power hungry than mine ;) chances are your raidmax will work fine though(for a while) but that isn't a guarantee :D

So, I can buy RAIDMAX X1 ATX-909WBP Black/ Silver 0.7mm Japanese SECC Body / Aluminum Faceplate ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 450watts PS2 ATX12V SATA Ready Power Supply - Retail this one, right? cuz its 450W. My friend has X1800XT, he uses 450W for that graphics card. is there any difference between PSC and PS?

well, I actually kinda like that raidmax case... I looked at it.. it isn't too bad at all, lol... go for it man, but keep in mind you may have to replace the PS at some point.. If your PC starts having issues, you'll know the most probable culprit. Go for the raidmax... it's worth a shot, I haven't heard bad things about them... they are just so cheap it scares me. I haven't had my raidmax long enough to make any conclusions, although it has treated me well thus far, and the one you are going to be getting is better than my 420w one so theoretically it "should" be good enough to power yours which will require that extra juice
