Hi all, I need some help on my first gaming computer build. Here is my list so far. I would appreciate any feedback on the choices and any recommendations.
AMD Athlon 64 3800+ 1GHz FSB Socket 939
eVGA Geforce 7800GT 256-P2-N518 Video Card
eVGA 133-K8-NF41 ATX AMD MotherboardThis mobo will actually come free with the vid card
CORSAIR XMS 1GB (2 x 512MB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM
OCZ OCZ520ADJ 520W Power Supply
Seagate Barracuda 7200.8 250GB 3.5" Serial ATA150 Hard Drive
NEC Silver IDE DVD Burner Model ND-3540A
I am up in the air between two cases:
Thermaltake Tsunami VA3000SWA Silver Computer Case
Antec SUPER LANBOY Silver Computer Case
Two monitors I have my eye on, still looking though.
acer AL1722h (ET.L0408.069) Silver-Black 17" 8ms LCD, 700:1, 0.264mm, DVI
SAMSUNG Syncmaster 17" LCD Digital Analog Monitor 730B 8ms, 600:1, 0.264mm, DVI
Half of this info was recommended to me, the other half I chose from a weeks worth of lurking in this and other forums. Again, this will be my first build so I am a little apprehensive about it. Is there anything else I am forgetting other than an operating system? Thanks.:classic:
