I'm building my first computer since my dad and I last built one in the 1980's. Can someone please take a look at the following and let me know if this works?

G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-4GBNQ
Combo $190.98

This should come to $824 after rebates (assuming they come through).
Does this build work? I'm trying to keep the budget around $800. The one big question I had was on the graphics card. This one seemed powerful for the price and quiet.

Thanks for the help!!

^ Yes it would work...
What will you be using the PC for ? And about the HDD, you can get a Faster Samsung F3/ Seagate 7200.12 1TB HDD for less...

Thanks for the quick feedback!

Using it for Adobe CS4, so some graphics work. It's frustratingly slow on my celeron laptop.

I'm not a hard core gamer, but will likely pick up a few of the more recent games if I have a system that can play them.

^ The HD 4670 would suffice if you game occasionally at low resolutions...
If you have a high resolution monitor, then you would have to turn down settings in graphic intensive games...
And if you do professional work, then another 4GB RAM would be beneficial...
And I dont think you would need 650W PSU...

Which chassis is that going in? That is gonna be a rather large cooler on a mATX motherboard. Are you going to try and squeeze that into a HTPC?
