Did you forget a case and powersupply? Are you planning on loading any software cause I don't see any CD drives.? Also once you get the whole computer are you planning on playing any games with it? If you are toss that 9200SE it'll be about worthless for any decent gaming w/ today's games.

I've never heard of the 9200 line.

if you're trying to cut spending, I'd say skip the heat spreaders for now.
you can always get them later.

just my .02
