I was going to build a new system last year, but I got sidetracked and am getting back into it. To me, this is a 'comfortable' price. Good value, but not slow stuff. Under $1000 with EVERYTHING (core parts, fans, cables, delivery, bribes, Purina Monkey Chow (its real), etc.). 19" LCD now, professional 22 or 24" later on (no TN for me).
My biggest question is - WHAT POWER SUPPLY!!!??? I picked a 520W Corsair (listed below), is this OK?
MAIN PARTS:
--Intel E8400 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115037
--Gigabyte GA-EP35-DS3L - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128337
--G.SKILL 2 x 2GB PC2 6400 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231122
--ATI 4850 with FANCY COOLER (worth it for lower noise and temps?) - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127370
--Western Digital 640GB - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136218
OTHER STUFF:
--Lian Li PC-7B - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811112099
--Corsair 520 watt PSU - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139001
--Pioneer DVD+/-RW drive - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827129020
--Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835186134
Again, not sure on the power supply, but does everything look good? Should everything work well together? Still not sure on the 2 vs. 4 core CPU, but I can easily change this before I buy/in a few years.
Thanks, I really appreciate your help!
