Hello, I just registered here after lurking these boards for the previous week or so.

I'm looking to build a new computer as my old machine decided to call it quits recently, this will be my first attempt, though I have some experience dis/assembling a few computers. I've been looking around at Newegg and i've gathered a list that i'd like some opinions on, and to see if some of you computer guru's could assure me that everything is compatible. Here goes...

That's what i've come up with so far, as you can see I don't have a video card there, because I have a decent high end card already.
Any opinions / recommendations are much appreciated.
 
I plan on purchasing this when I get home, could someone give me a quick assurance that everything listed will be compatible with one another?

thank you.
 
that mobo doesnt have onboard video, so what do you plan on doing for graphics?

i would recommend a 7900gs. personally, i believe it provides the best performance for the price.

I have a spare All-in-Wonder X1900 that I plan on using.
