PSU: PLEASE HELP!!

Ok so there we have it! These parts come to a total of $875 (after edit). There is no way I can go over budget, except for possibly buying the optical drive at a later date.

Any advice on my build would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks guys!

Ok, thanks for the quick reply. I was hoping to use this kit over three channels, two paired in dual channel and one running in single channel, as it is a nice cheap option to have the 3gb supported by XP. I take it this is not possible due to the triple-channel nature of the RAM?

I have adjusted my OP.

Any other problems/advice?

I don't have a motherboard at the moment, I'm on a completely different system. That motherboard seems fairly cheap and offers plenty of expansion options which is all I'm really after at the moment.

I've also edited my OP to include more information about my CPU/PSU.

Ok, advice taken! Thanks kevin and outlander! I'll probably just wait a week or two and get another couple of gigs of ram when I can afford it =)

You guys have been really helpful. Keep the advice coming!

EDIT: Ok so I'm now in need of a PSU. Seems I lent my Antec 430w to a mate some time ago. He's happy to swing me the $78 I paid for it and lend me a few extra bucks if I need it so he doesn't have to take it out of his system haha. So yeah guys I'm pretty noob when it comes to PSU issues, all I know is I'm pretty sure I need one with 2x PCI-E connectors for my video card. This is what I'm looking at so far:

Antec ATX EarthWatts 500W
http://www.umart.com.au/pro/produc [...] &sid=23551

Or this:

CoolerMaster 650W Extreme Plus
http://www.umart.com.au/pro/produc [...] &sid=37912

I've heard that Antec tend to deliver more reliable power supply, however the CoolerMaster is cheaper and has removable cables to reduce internal clutter.

Thanks again for the help guys!

The Antec Earthwatts is more efficient... so even though the coolermaster offers 650W, the Antec can possibly still output more. Still, either would be pushing it with a 4890. Once it's 80plus certified and offers about 600W, then you're clear... a weaker psu may probably get the job done, but why take the chance.

Something like this would get the job done:

Hmm ok so my PSU isn't a problem but my video card will NOT fit in this case. Can anyone suggest a different case with a similar price?

Yeah I called up Umart and had a tech try and fit it in. He can't get it in there. I've settled for the nVidia case by CoolerMaster. And yes I realise the irony of having an ATI card in that case =p

I placed my order not too long ago. Thanks again for all your help guys!
