Hey guys, I would appreciate some feedback on my current build. I will be upgrading an old gaming PC and will be salvaging the 4gb ddr2 ram, 500w antec psu, case, and the disk drive.

Do you think these are good components and if anyone has a recommendation on how I can get more for my money I would love to hear it. The total is at 354.96$ and I would'nt mind going a little higher if its worth it. Thanks.

I would look at the XFX 550 watt model, it is a high quality PSU made by SeaSonic, and you can get it for $49.99. Something in the 500-600 range would be good.

You need DDR3 RAM for that motherboard. So figure $400 for the CPU/Motherboard/RAM/GPU. Also, do you need an OS? Since you are getting a new motherboard your current copy of Windows (I assume you have Windows now) will not work.
