You could go socket 939 and it would be only about 13 dollars more and be more expandable and you could still use that dual channel ram and actually ger the performance increase using the sckt 939 instaed of sckt 754. here is a list i made up real quick you could choose different parts but it might cost 20-30 dollars more but it would be worth it.
Wish List

 

could you fix the link to the wishlist, cause it pull up mine . what is the name of the list?

 

also, as for the 939 v. 734, it also comes with nforce4 chipset, much better than 3.

 

DFI nF4-DAGF ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail at Newegg.com

eVGA Geforce 6600LE 128-P2-N354-TX Video Card - Retail at
Newegg.com


AMD Athlon 64 3000+ 1GHz FSB Socket 939 Processor - Retail at Newegg.com

 

and...imo, im not too sure about rosewill, i've seen it only recently, don't know much about it...other than cheap...not too sure about longevity....also, check the sapphire radeon 9600's w/256 mb vram...same or even cheaper...good luck

side note...you ever use http://pricegrabber.com ? it compares prices from many sellers for computer parts, including newegg and zipzoomfly.

 

i know about price grabber... It HAS to be a skt 754 or else it wont come out cheap enough (ive tried)... They want a 19" LCD....

 

the power supply is lacking its a Powmax it only has 12 amps on the 12 volt rail. Not good!

 

the processor listed here is only $22 more and it's socket 939...$146 v. $124...and it's faster.

 

you might want to look further for a monitor that has dvi. i don't think that one does.

 

Changed cases to this :

All i saw with reviews from that cheap rosewill one were horror stories! At least i know and trust ASPIRE.

As for the monitor, its Analog AGB style input.... which is what we are using on our office computer.

 

Ok, heres the UPDATED version of it...

This IS the FINAL build info (hopefully if everything is compatible?)

Just tell me if it is all compatible, Socket 939 won't be an issue as they dont upgrade, they get new computers. So, this is what i hope, is going to be final. The price is just in range for them too.

*crosses fingers* its all good right?

 

looks good

 

looks alright

 

your building a computer for a customer and your asking us whether it will all work together?,lol,sleepygamers in deep lol ,looks O.k,dont forget a 120mm fan for the rear of the case,dont look like its got one,good luck m8

P.S Just looking at the inside of that case makes my fingers sore

 

Well, I ask because of the fact that sometimes i miss things.... which i dont want happening ! As for the case, they'll be my fingers and no one elses!

 

GREAT bargain on a PSU for your build. Might take a look: 550 Watt!

 

Sorry, last post is in wrong thread... doing too many things tonight, I guess.

 

hehe, Quick Question though.

The build went WAY better than expected, was able to complete it in appx 5 hours (maybe a little less) but it seems a little slow...

I installed everything and didnt mess with the clock settings in the bios. When it starts up the CPU is recognized as an athlon 64 2800+.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16819103485 is the link to the CPU.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16813136147 is the link to the motherboard.

Now, im not all up to speed on the hyper transport and 800FSB stuff....

Right now the computer is assembled an running with Windows XP Pro x32, how do i set up the hypertransport? Is the 800FSB already running at 800FSB or lesser? I think its set to auto right now?

 

hypertransport should automatically be on , chip running at 800 fsb already so unless you're gonna overclock i'd leave it set there

 

Another quick question... is this psu a 420 or 320? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16811144076

On newegg it says 420 but on aspires website it says 320....

 

the cases probably have different power supply options if you get the case and its not 420w contact newegg and have it rectified

 

according to the pic it's 420w as well

maybe you could run some benchmarking tests to see if you really are right about it running slow:
