Been searching and reading for days now weeding through post after post looking for the best components to build my new rig.

This is what I came up with ......and what I see most commonly referred to in these threads....

What I need to know is if I will have any conflicts ? Will they all work together and provide the best performance for gaming and graphic intensive programs?

I need to know what you guys think of this case also..... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811129021 . Please feel free to offer other case options.


Thanks for any/all info and advice,

P.s.... I should add, I want to purchase everything from one place (newegg) in order to keep it simple.

Everything loooks fine to me except for the power supply ... although Antec isn't horrible there are better choices, you also might want to get a better HS/fan for the cpu if you plan on doing any overclocking.

Congratulations on reading through the threads here! :thumbsup::laugh: You're a cut above The Rest

The Antec case?
What's not to love about good air flow and that upside-down ATX design.

Just Newegg?
If you can get groups of parts cheaper from other vendors, go for it.
I wouldn't order parts from 9 different vendors just because they were cheaper by a buck.

Excellent....these are the smaller items I need help with.

Fine .... http://www.ewiz.com/detail.php?name=PS-E5150GH

I won't really be OC'ing as this should be plenty fast enough as is.


The case, I really like it but I am concerned about the PSU connections being long enough (as some of the reviews suggest). Will the Enhance PSU work....or will I have to lengthen the wires?


Thanks for the help all..... and Merry Christmas

Anyone have any insight on this case and the psu wire length ???

Thanks

I don't know if I'd buy that Antec Stacker-alike when you can get the real thing at near the same price after rebate.

And I wouldn't buy anything Belkin. It's just fancily packaged generic at two to three times the price. I'd get the Sabrent parallel to USB adapter that plugs right into the printer and extend it with a USB extension cable if you need longer.
