New pc build - looking for help

[rasmusbrun]

Hi

I would like some help with my new pc build - does this hardware work together? Also, if there are any suggestions I would appreciate it!

CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113284

RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820104370

SSD: http://ocz.com/consumer/vertex-450-sata-3-ssd

I got a Sapphire radeon 5850 1gb ddr5 gfx, which I will upgrade sometime - and a cooler for AM3 MB.

The PSU is 500 Watt, and im not sure if thats even enough for this build?

Thanks in advance!

those will work, but not really optimized

tell us your budget, and where do you live

you deserve more than that build

btw, be specific on your psu brand/type

Okay. It is for gaming, so I will consider that thank you.

I guess "more" isnt necessarily better?

yes, buy parts that suit your need

otherwise, i will just sit there unused

I see the logic in that

On a side note, is there any cables or such that I need for the SSD drive - Does the SSD just use regular SATA cables?

 

[AMD Radeon]

exactly, regular sata cable

usually you get sata cable included in the ssd package

Thank you for all your answers!
