Need Final input on this system

[plaidfro]

I'm such a wuss... I haven't pulled the trigger on my new home computer yet. But the wife said I can get it in Sept.

How's it lookin? A lot of the changes I have made have been because of advice and suggestions by you guys, Thanks:

MoBo = EPoX EP-9NPA+Ultra 939 NVIDIA nForce4 Ultra ATX $105
CPU = AMD Athlon 64 3000+ Venice 1GHz FSB Socket 939 $146
Case = Antec LifeStyle SONATA II Piano ATX Mid Tower 450Watt SmartPower 2.0 ATX 12V V2.0 $109
Video Card = eVGA 128-P2-N368-TX Geforce 6600GT 128MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card $154
HD = Western Digital Caviar SE WD800JB 80GB 7200 RPM IDE Ultra ATA100 Hard Drive $55
RAM = CORSAIR ValueSelect 1GB (2 x 512MB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200) Unbuffered Dual Channel Kit System Memory Model VS1GBKIT400l $90

Total = $670

Is there a specific brand of 6600GT I should be looking at or is the eVGA just fine?

Not bad for a low budget computer... If I can squeeze out some more money from somewhere I would like to get a 6800GT Video Card... but its not cost effective yet.

EDIT: Now built, Thanks guys

A good brand would be XFX, or eVGA or BFG... Oh wait... I think evga applied their lifetime warranty to 7-series and up... err... heh...

Still, I say buy a separate psu instead of getting the sonata II.

:beer: Everything looks good.

evga is very good
the 450w smart power PSU will be fine

Looks good to me and for 670$$ thats a nice rig! 🙂 My vote is eVga on the GFX card.

 

[GR8Madmax]

That looks good. The only suggestion I have is to get a Seagate HD (5 year warranty) over WD.

I'd like to thank everyone who helped me get my system built. It is unbvelievable. The only difference from the above specs is that I got a Seagate 80GB SATA150 HD instead of WD.

System runs great... we'll see about OC'ing later.

Thanks,
