I've been searching and searching and expanding my budget more and more to put this rig together. I've asked and received advice and as far as I can tell, all of my decisions are good decisions for a first build.
I am into 3D modeling, Web design, graphic design, and some video editing here and there...anything Multimedia related...no gaming.
OK...On to the goods
The Case and Power supply are together:
Newegg.com - Antec PERFORMANCE TX TX1050B Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 500W ATX12V v2.0 Power Supply - Retail
The motherboard:
Newegg.com - ASUS P5B Deluxe LGA 775 Intel P965 Express ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail
The Processor:
Newegg.com - Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 Conroe 1.86GHz 2M shared L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor - Retail
The Ram:
Newegg.com - G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Retail
The video card:
Newegg.com - PNY VCQFX560-PCIE-PB-V Quadro FX560 128MB 128-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card - Retail
The Hard drive:
Newegg.com - Seagate Barracuda ES ST3320620NS 320GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM
The Monitors (x2):
Newegg.com - SAMSUNG 941BW Black 19" 4 ms (GTG) DVI Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 500:1 - Retail
Other crap:
Windows XP Pro, Acronis True Image 10, cheapo keyboard and mouse
Total:
I'm looking at $1,545.90 before shipping and all that other good stuff.
Your opinion on this is very much appreciated. I don't have any intention on overclocking *yet*. Will I be OK with the stock heatsink on the processor?
