Yeah like the title says I would like to know how much this would cost:
Full Tower ATX CASE with power supply 300 WATT
256MB CAS-2 Mushkin's "High-Perf" Rev. 2 PC-133 RAM OR 128 (Do I need it for gaming?)
800 or 900 Tbird(which is better value?)
IBM ATA-100 7200 RPM 30GB 75GXP
Creative Labs Annihilator 2 GeForce 2
OR ATI Radeon 64 meg DDR
72X Kenwood TrueX CD-ROM drive
OR should I go for a CDRW instead?

I am not sure which Motherboard to get (lil help here)

Thanks in advance for any comments

Check out pricewatch.com for that stuff. Also check out atacom.com coolerguys.com and buy.com. Go for the Ka7 (I think this is the name) for the mobo (Abit or Asus, can't remember). The 800 will do fine unless you want to plunk down the extra cash for the 900. I think the 800's have a good yield for o/cing too. As for the CD question; get both if you can. If not then it depends on if you will use the cd-rw enough to justify buying one. Have fun building the sys. Hope this helped
