So I'm new to this computer building. I'm getting a friend who knows more than I do to help me put everything together. Here is my build:
LIAN LI PC-65B Black Aluminum ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
MSI P6N SLI Platinum LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 650i SLI ATX Intel Motherboard
EVGA 640-P2-N821-AR GeForce 8800GTS 640MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Video Card
Thermaltake Toughpower W0128RU ATX12V / EPS12V 650W Power Supply
Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 Conroe 3.0GHz LGA 775 Processor Model BX80557E6850
CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model TWIN2X2048-6400C5DHX
Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3320620AS (Perpendicular Recording Technology) 320GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive
LG 18X DVD±R Lightscribe DVD Burner Black IDE Model GSA-H44LK
Then some other LG CD drive.

I was just curious if this would be a decent build. I'm looking to not spend over $1400. Would I still be able to use my version of XP that I have on my old system with this new system as well, or would I need another version to run on the new computer? I plan on replacing my old computer with this one completely. So if anyone has any suggestions, or any comments I would greatly appreciate the help.
