Like I said, this is my first build so I want to make sure I do it right. Here's my part list:
1. ASRock 939SLI32-eSATA2 Socket 939 ULi M1697 ATX AMD Motherboard
2. eVGA 256-P2-N563-AX Geforce 7900GT 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card
3. ENERMAX Noisetaker EG495P-VE SFMA ATX 485W Power Supply
4. AMD Athlon 64 3700+ San Diego 2000MHz HT Socket 939
5. CORSAIR ValueSelect 1GB (2 x 512MB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200)
6. Western Digital Caviar SE WD1600JS 160GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive
I decided to go with the cheaper mobo based on Anandtech's review and the fact that I'd probably replace it and the processor next year with conroe or AM2 stuff. I also have a case and a DVD Burner picked out, but I didn't list those here since I didn't think they would matter that much. Any pointers on things to keep in mind would be greatly appreciated.
