This is just going to be a second pc. i don't know much about pcs but this is everything that i have so far.

does everything fit or well go together?

will this be able to hand almost any game with a good GFX card?

the most important and unsure thing right now is the motherboard will it fit in the case i picked out

First off, pick up the E6300 and save a couple pennies.

Drop the intel board; forget micro ATX and go with a normal ATX size, and do yourself a favor and pickup a decent PSU; the one with your case
sucks something awful.

and why not 2 sticks of 512? = 1GB... unless your on a very tight budget and your picking up the 2nd 1gb later, that I understand.

what track said though; still need a gpu

cheap; and thats exactly what your going to get, I wouldnt touch it for my life.

that said. PSU means Power Supply Unit, essential the heart of your PC and far more important than most people realize.

that gpu isnt too bad if your looking for a temp card until 1st or 2nd gen DX10.


btw: may I suggest looking @ the E6320 for a CPU :idea:
