    I'd be cautious about a recertified harddrive, especially one from Western Digital. I'd recommend going with a non refurbed or a slightly smaller (400GB) in a better brand (Seagate).

    The way I look at it is you're spending over $1000 as it is. If you spend an extra $25 you can get a core 2 duo system with a more stable and modern motherboard.

    Basically I would shell out an extra $5 on the memory, $9 on the processor and find a compatible motherboard which will probably raise your motherboard cost an extra $10.

    I strongly recommend it. The parts you selected are good, they're just a bit dated.

    ya know, you can always just add another post to your old thread rather than making a whole new one...it will make sure that more people can monitor your build, hence you will get more help and opinions. post that new link to the updated wish list in your other thread
