Will all my parts work together?

Here it is, finally. After much toil and TONS of learning, I am rather pleased with what I've put together here. My biggest concern is that, in my minimal pc knowledge, i may have added some items to my list that don't even work with the motherboard/case/videocard. so, if you have the time, it would save me much time serfing the web and looking up specs (even that is what i've been doing for the last few days). I'd just hate to get the pc and find that parts don't fit, work together as awhole, or just are crappy altogether.

Here are my specs:

So there it is for the most part. I'll probably be getting a monitor later as well with a keyboard/mouse. As you can see, it is all from newegg.com, which seems to be the best I've found sofar. Anyways, check it out if you have the time. Again, this is my 1st PC ever, so ANY help would be appreciated to the max. Thanks again!

Mplichfamily, evongugg, and myself suggested that you get a different psu, that statment is still stands.

The rest of the build looks good.

Agreed about the PSU.

Do you plan on overclocking? Even a "modest" overclock on an X2 3600+ would achieve that same speeds as the 4200+ for cheaper, and give you a little extra cash for other components.

Like the PSU.

If you want a sound card, get one, but it really doesn't matter that much unless you're an absolute audiophile and your speakers are good enough to actually tell the difference.

so, i took ur guys advise and got this new PSU FSP Group (Fortron Source) AX500-A, 2.0 version, 2 SATA, PCI Express, 500W

if i can get a cheaper one that is basically the same, that would be great.

i also dropped the audio chip.

one question for the above post about the ram. what's the difference? is mine that much worse? seeing that i dont really know all that much about computers, any fill ins would be awesome on that one

so, total cost will be about $675 with a $50 mail in rebate on the 2gig ram chips already figured.

I have that exact same ram in my machine, super fast. only thing was i paid 180 bucks when i got it a month ago and it comes with a free Shirt.

man, you guys are the best! tons of helpful input.

one more thing. I have the new system spec pc from your guys help saved in my newegg.com wishlist. but, im curious. i wont be buying this machine until about a month or less. thought i'd save some time doing it in advance by reading up on overclocking and whatnot so when i actually do recieve the package, ill know exactly what to do. but with that being said, do you suppose prices will go down in these products in about a months time? already, $650 is a great deal in my book, but that little extra would be a major plus.

you need a decent psu that junker will casue u problems most likely!

silverstone strider 600 $110 at eastluna
neohe 500 on sale at frys walk in only $50 off $110 = $60


the patriot 4-4-4-12 is epp and will not boot is low volt mobos that have 1.8v preset
- its great ram - i lov patriot

-corsair is corsair - which AAA+++ tough choice!

Getting cable cord would just be a waste of money. If you have cable internet the cable cord plugs into a cable modem, you use CAT-6 (latest standard, CAT-5 would work fine too.) to hook the modem up to your pc through one of it's ethernet ports.
