Hi
I'm wanting to build a computer
I'm thinking C2D 6300
Seagate 400 Gb Sata II 16 Mb
2x Radeon X1650 Pro PCI-E 512 Mb
Asus P5W-DH Deluxe
I plan on a 2 Gb memory stick
The P5W has Dolby Master Studio technology... so does this mean I won't need a soundcard?
I'm going to need a case as well, and a monitor. For the monitor i want a 19 inch wide LCD
What amount of power supply do I need, will it be cool enough, will it be loud, will it connect to the internet, etc
I'll want to add another drive. As well, I'm new to gaming outside of consoles, so is this a good machine. My budget is 1500$
I'm going to be using it for surfing, a few games (Rainbow Six Vegas, Prey, Lego Star Wars), watching/burning movies, P2P and Torrents (I use Shareaza), listening to music, etc ...I'd like to add a home studio and hopefully watch television on it
Anyway, I've spent the last half week researching and I hope to make a purchase very soon. I figure i'll buy most everything from www.satacomputer.com (Their prices are about the same as online, and tho I know I sound like a *****, I'm a bit tenative about putting it together myself)
Thank you for all your help
Jeff
