Hi,
I'm looking to build a new computer with using a few parts from my current computer. This is my first build and I was hoping to get some advice on if what I have 1) will even all work together as I have it and 2) if it is any good. Thanks for any help!
The components I've picked out:
ASUS M4A87T motherboard
AMD Athlon II X4 645 Propus processor (ADX645WFGMBOX)
Galaxy GeForce GT 430 Fermi video card (43GGS8HX3SPZ)
G.Skill Value Series RAM (F3-10666CL9D-8GBNT)
Seagate Barracuda 500GB hard drive (ST500DM002)
ASUS DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD burner
Approximate Purchase Date: as soon as I can get pieces picked out that I know will work together
Budget Range: $450 - $500
System Usage from Most to Least Important: surfing the internet, excel, music, gaming (really only play the Civ series), movies
Parts Not Required: keyboard, mouse, monitor, speakers, OS, case (Antec SLK2650-BQE), power supply (AGI API5PC17)
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: newegg.com (open to other sites, this is just the only one I've used before for parts)
Country: United States
Parts Preferences: I had an AMD processor, GeForce video card, and ASUS motherboard in current build and was very happy with them and would like to use the same brands again
Overclocking: No
SLI or Crossfire: NO
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: I'm concerned that my existing power supply isn't enough for the new build. I tried looking at different places for power consumption info and got different results where some said I was fine and others said I was way over.
