My first build and hoping I did a good job on the choices...but there's always the chance I missed something that's better and cheaper.
CPU: San Diego 3700+ (Tho I recently saw the Opteron 165 and was thinking it might be a better investment. Thoughts?)
Video: ATI X1800XT 512mb
Memory: Mushkin Extreme Performance DDR500 2x1g
MotherBoard: DFI Lan Party NF4 Ultra-D
HD: WD Raptor 74g
PSU: Blue Fortron 500W Storm Power Supply
DVD/CD: Don't need (yet)
Sound: Don't need (yet)
Case: Cooler Master Stack T01
Mouse: have
Keybaord;have
speakers: have
Heatsink: Scythe Ninja
HSF: Delta 3 blade, high speed
I Will not need another HD as this will give me a second PC (I do have extras of the mouse/keyboard/speakers/monitor)
I will be testing the waters of overclocking. Any suggestions/thoughts? I would like to reduce the price some w/o much loss in power (One of the reasons I getting the 3700+ over the Opteron).
