Friends new Computer needs some feedback

[Soujiroh]

My friend just asked me to comment on his build. I told him what he needed to hear, but I would also like to hear other people's opinion on the build. Here it goes:


DFI LANPARTY UT nF4 Ultra-D Socket 939 motherboard- $99.99
eVGA 7900GT 256MB GDDR3 Video Card Model#256-P2-N583-AR- $279.99
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ Manchester ADA4200BVBOX - Retail - $183.00
Thermaltake W0101RU ATX 12V 2.0 Version 550W Power Supply - Retail - $75.99


Total: $637.98 (Less money=Better)

Any comments or suggestions? Thanks!

Does he have a sound card, montitor, mouse, keyboard, etc.

No, he'll be using his old keyboard, monitor, etc. The only required pieces are the ones I listed. If he decides to go with AM2 then he'll need to buy new ram, but I don't think he's willing to try it out due to the fact that AM2 is too new and not stable. Thanks!
