Ok, so this is my 3rd try at a computer build heh. Now, I don't need it to be super good, just good enough to run Battlefield 2 without being choppy. Here are the parts:

Case/PSU: http://www.factorydirect.ca/catalog/product_spec.php?pcode=AT1150
Video Card: http://www.factorydirect.ca/catalog/product_spec.php?pcode=AT9557
CPU: http://www.canadacomputers.com/index.php?do=ShowProduct&cmd=pd&pid=004281&cid=CPU.791
Ram: http://www.factorydirect.ca/catalog/product_spec.php?pcode=ME1001
Mobo: http://www.factorydirect.ca/catalog/product_spec.php?pcode=AS0478
HD: http://www.factorydirect.ca/catalog/product_spec.php?pcode=HA0080
Optical drive: http://www.canadacomputers.com/index.php?do=ShowProduct&cmd=pd&pid=008023&cid=CR.184

So then, what I need to know is, will all these parts work with each other? And is it worth it to buy this? Or should I get different parts. Thank you.
 
Your motherboard has like zero information. All it says is socket 478. I need to know what kind of ram slots it uses, what graphics slot it uses, ect.

from www.asrock.com

Socket 478 for Intel P4 processor
VIA P4M800 chipset

1. Supports FSB800MHz processor, Prescott
Ready and H-T Technology
2. 2 DDR DIMM slots, Supports DDR400/333/266
3. Hybrid Booster - ASRock safe overclocking Technology
4. SerialATA 1.5Gb/s, SATA HDD_Hotplug, RAID 0,1,JBOD
5. AGP8X, 5.1channel Audio, 10/100 Ethernet LAN

Hope that helps :D.
 
it just needs to be good enough to run BF2 without being choppy.

Boys, I know it's easy to spend other people's money, but sometimes they have a budget and really DO feel like sticking to it.

For like $10 more you could get an Athlon 64 3200 Venice which is faster than a socet 478 2.4Ghz P4, and for what you're paying for that Radeon 9550 you could have my 9800 pro which has the R360 core.
 
you have to also consider the price of the motherboard. You see, when you upgrade something, often times there's more costs than just the difference in the price between two competing components.
