First off,
Greetings to TH community!
Today I'll be drawing upon your knowledge of CPU installation. Specifically;
CPU-motherboard-PSU compatability. Having noticed the (falling?) prices
of AMD hexa-cores, I've decided to obtain a Black Edition. One way
or another. So, that in mind, please have a look at my specs and share
your opinion! (All links lead to official sites [HP, AMD, SilverStone])
Current PC specs:
Athlon II X4 635 @ 3.05 (Propus)
Win 7 Home Premium
MSI GTX460 @ 920/1840/2107
4GB Corsair DDR3-1333
SilverStone 500W http://www.silverstonetek.com/products/p_spec.php?pno=ST50F-ES&area=usa
Mobo... http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02560084&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=4299342#N529
There you have it. Tell me if I missed any important information! Now onto...

Considering I put this together for approximately $770, I believe I did alright.
So, what do you guys think? Anything I missed in my post celebratory state? Physical
restraints? Driver, BIOS issues? PSU adequacy? Leave me your thoughts!
