Hi all,
it's not my first build but the last one was about 6 years ago :D
so... is my first built ^_^

I am reading here that you all are very prepared so I hope you could tell me something about this:

CASE:Midt 302ns 450w Airtube Cm Ventola Per Case 120x1
HD: Hitachi 320gb S-Ata2
VG: Sapphire X1650pro 256mb
kb and mouse: Lt Deluxe 650 Black Oem
MOBO: Asus M2r32-Mvp (xpress 3200)
CPU: Amd Athlon64 X2 3800+ Am2
RAM: Corsair 2x512mb Pc6400epp

all for 732.41 eur
is a simple system. I'll change x2 3800 in 2 year and i'll add 1 gb for sure very soon.

This system can work?
corsair EPP works on this mobo?
crossfire is good or better 1 good video board?
This case is very bad or can handle the system?

THANK TO ALL ^_^

Yes that system will work.
Not sure on the EPP, but I would guess yes.
Crossfire like SLi mainly depends on the resolutions your using. Without its for a 22" monitor one good card is normally better.
The case is totally your choice, but I would be wary of any PSU which comes with a case as they are normally lower quality.

thank you all for your reply,

I knew that I'm on the right place to ask! :D

I have a 19' monitor that I use with 1024*768, crossfire and sli are useless?
Are bettere 2 videocard for a total of 300 eur or 1 good videocard at 300eur?

Are you on a tight budget?

Yes :( you got it. I think I cant afford too much money, 800 eur is my max. what a sad life :D

thank you all again!

mmm ok
I have to improve my knowledge about sli and crossfire.
I was thinking that it'll be good also on this system

I have seen that with 55 more euro I can get an:

Sapphire X1950 Pro 256mb SAPPHIRE X1950 PRO 256MB, ATI RADEON X1950 PRO, PCI EXPRESS X16, DUAL DVI, TV OUT

What about this?
Is better?

It'll work fine with the mobo?
thanks a lot again!
