I think thatÂ’s everything but if IÂ’m wrong please let me know. Umm I was also thinking about getting the x800 pro for a video card but most places they are sold out so I donÂ’t know. Ok thanks for checking it out.
 
"Upgrade to professional grade..."

Vary cool! Now all you need is an Operating System..." :cool:
 
Enter the Megabyte..."

ThatÂ’s good. But be warned; you do need firewall and anti-virus software installed before you EVER manually access the internet. Because as soon as you do, the spy ware and add bulls*** will ware down your system permanently! Sometimes causing you to have to install the system all over again. (IÂ’m sure you probably already know this, but just making sureÂ…);) :cool:
 
Cool system. I don't really see anything you should change,. If I gave one suggestion, I would suggest getting a little bit less of a sound card, and upping your gfx card choice to the X800 Pro or XT. But, the system you currently got is great. Good luck building your first system. It will be an experience you will always remember.
 
Holy S#!% ! that system will ROCK. I wouldn't change a thing. But seriously consider the x800.
