I've already got the case, hard drive, dvd rom, and power supply it;s 585W... Now the rest of the build i;m ordering at the end of this week so please opinions please and would I be looking at any compatibility issues?

CPU

moBO

GPU

RAM
 
Yeah good for the price,However im thinking that processor you chose might bottleneck that 250?

I could be wrong though:)
 
The only reason I didn't pick that RAM in the first place is because it wasn't on sale like this at the time.... No I don't care about the free game I think it's a good card, what's better in the same price range??

MSI GTS250 512MB OC version is $130, MIR $30. Is it worth spending extra $40 for EVGA?
And while the ATI HD4870 512MB could found at $165, is it really worth to go for GTS250 at $140

Dude, one thing about newegg is the prices change daily, I can't check the site every day to see what prices change on what cards if I do that i'll never end of with a GPU... A lot of the stuff you've just mentioned was updated this morning, especially the free game with that EVGA.. When I put it on my wish list it was $129 without a free game.. The MSI is hardly overclocked not even close of a performance hit I'd worry about, if you look at the EVGA cards and about 85% of the other cards you'll notice the EVGA have slightly faster core speeds from 738mhz to 756mhz.. Anyway thanks for the heads up, I'd love for someone to update me on changes they see on newegg, lol it's just to hard to keep up with...
 
Ammm...
MSI N250GTS-2D512-OC GeForce GTS 250 512MB $130, MIR $30
Core clock 760MHz
Memory Clock 2300MHz

EVGA 512-P3-1150-TR GeForce GTS 250 512MB $140
Core clock: 756MHz
Memory Clock: 2200MHz
 
I was a little skeptical in the past with these new memory brands. Back when I built my Wife's rig, Super Talent scored pretty high on review sites that I Googled. Looking at today's timings, those G-Skill are looking better and better (especially the price). :cool:
