Hi all, first build for me in many, many years.
This is what I plan on ordering. I passing on a video card at first because of the onboard video with 128mb sideport.
I'm planning on using it for games, video and as a backup DVR
I also have a second DVD-RW and IDE Hard Drive (250GB) that I will be using also.
GIGABYTE GA-MA78GPM-DS2H
AMD Phenom 9850 BLACK EDITION
ZALMAN CNPS 9700 NT 110mm 2 Ball Ultra Quiet CPU Cooler
8 GB - G.SKILL (4 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066
Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD6400AAKS 640GB 7200 RPM SATA
ASUS 20X DVD±R DVD Burner with LightScribe SATA - DRW-2014L1T
CORSAIR CMPSU-750TX 750W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI ,CrossFire Ready
Antec P182
Acer AL2216Wbd Black 22" 5ms Widescreen LCD Monitor with HDCP
If I need a video card, which one? I don't need a screamer, just something that will work in addition to the mobo video. I am also planning on a second monitor within 6 months.
Thanks for your opinions
