I've been lurking around these boards for a while now but i just registered and this is my first post, so hello to everyone.
I'm about to make my first built and am looking for opinions.
Case: Thermaltake Soprano Black w/Window VB1000BWS
Power Supply: Thermaltake TR2 550W ATX 2.0
Mobo: MSI K9N Platinum 570 MCP
RAM: 2x1GB kit OCZ Platinum 6400 DDR2 The memory is the reason why i stay clear from Asus M/Bs
CPU: Athlon X2 4600+ EE
VGA: Asus 7600GT 256MB
HD: Seagate Barracuda 320GB 16MBbuffer
I'll probably also buy these two:
Zalman VF900-CU VGA Cooler Less noise and better Cooling
Arctic Cooling Alpine 64 CPU Cooler Less noise and cheap but maybe EE models come with a quiter cooler so i havent decided about this one yet.
I intend to use this pc for a variety of tasks, from compiling to video playback to some gaming. It will probably remain running almost 24/7. Where i live it gets pretty hot in summer so i figured heat could be an issue. Also its gonna be in my bedroom so the less noise the better. i dont intent to overclock.
So thats it. Opinions?
