Please verify my build

[some_guy]

Ok, it's been years since I've attempted to build a system, but my computer is starting to give out on me. Please verify that all my parts are compatible and are quality parts. Also, is there any place I can pre-order the E6850 chip? I've found several sites that have it listed for $290. Is the price supposed to go down any further?

Newegg has the new version 830EVO with their 1K Real Power Pro power supply for $399.99.I had mine delivered monday. The case has lots of room,and the 1K PS has plenty of power to go around.It even has two 8pin PCIe connectors for the new vidio cards that will be coming out,as well as 4 6pin PCIe.AS far as the e6850.buy.com now has them in stock for $309 including shipping if you go through google check out.buy.com is the only site that i know of that has the e6850s.I ordered 8 for my customers this morning.

Thanks for the suggestion, but that is much too expensive and beyond what I need.

VERY nice choice on the PSU, finally someone that can choose a PSU One thing that keeps bogging me, you're not buying a graphics card?

 

[some_guy]

Oops! Haha forgot to list it.

I'm getting the eVGA 8800 GTX.

The GTX is a long card - longer then MB? Some smaller cases might give you problems as it would run right into one of the bays.

 

[some_guy]

Yeah, that's what I heard, but this case has been known to specifically fit this video card.

 

[some_guy]

Oh, what is a good heatsink/fan I can buy for around $40-$50? I was looking into the Arctic Cooler Freezer 7 Pro but I don't know if it will fit on my motherboard.

Suggestions?
