Getting a new comp this week and wanted to make sure I am not getting anything horrible.

Motherboard Asus A8N-SLI NForce4 SLI Audio/GB-LAN/IEEE-1394/PCI-E/SATA/DDR/ATX 64 939
Does anyone know if premium edition is significantally better for the price?

Processor AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+

RAM 2 GB DDR (400) PC-3200 OCZ

GPU EVGS GeForce 7900 GTX

Power Suply a 550 watt or better power suply. Dont know a spesific one yet

Speakers 5.1 Logitec

Logitec G5 Mouse
Saitek Eclipse keyboard

Case ASPIRE X-Navigator ATXA8NW-SS/500 Silver case

Someone here recomended this but it comes with a 500w power suply which probabally wont cut it. May go with something else

2 hard drives

System should be awesome! Congrats! I would, however, pop for another Raptor instead of the Seagate and Run them in RAID 0. You wil not believe how much of an improvement those drives make in Stripping mode!!!

get G.SKill 2x1gb dual channel, but if u insist on OCZ get the Gold Edition

i'd suggest DFI Lanparty UT ULtra-D for your motherboard

Antec TruePowerII 550Watt PSU, it is great

everything else is great, and yes get another raptor

Sidenote: Its eVGA not eVGS
