This is the dream-computer I plan to build upon finishing my degree. I assembled it all on NewEgg, and I have the individual links posted here labeled as such. Could somebody please check over my build and make sure I didn't make any mistakes in my selection?

Not looking for criticism, I'm sure there are better ways to make what I'm trying to make. All I want to know is if it will work, and if all the parts are compatible. Also, I plan on putting two HDDs on RAID 0, but that's a different story!

Thanks, fellow geeks! :)
 
at first I did not want to t post because 2 things;

1. I am not a pro
2. he didn't want criticism

butttt, since everyone else doing it, I am going to hop on the train and suggest you ditch that legacy IDE hard drive and get a SATA hard drive.
 
Rosewills are made by atng... They make good ones, but its dependant on the oem to order it.

At a low price such as it is, i'd not expect a high end atng.

Clown, he probably didnt notice... i didn't.
 
Rosewill power supplies may not be the worst but they are far from being good. I would label them as being among the better class of low grade power supplies. I'll never buy one.
 
I'll have you know that you guys were WAY more useful and responsive than cybertechhelp.com.
I made changes to the HDD and SDU. The grand total is gonna be well over a grand now, but it'll be worth it. Here is the final build for my machine. Upon tech-nerd approval, I will be purchasing.
