    you're missing a power supply and an operating system. I would also get a DVD/CDRW drive rather than two seperate drives.
     
  3. ASUS

    ASUS MajorGeek

    He did mention PSU comes with his case, Butt most likely is generic, which would be poor choice.

    Agree about the drive, A multi format DVD burner/CDRW combo can be had for under $50 that come with OEM Nero 6

    The memory is alittle pricey, so is some of other hardware listed.

    For myself I'd be looking at either Asus or DFI mobo as they have the best 939 boards out there. (DFI best if OCing)
    HDD, I would have to go Maxtor DiamondMax 10, 16mb cache & probably SATA
