Hi-

I need to know if I did good and if everything is ok...

Athlon 64 3000+ (ADA3000AXBOX) - $180 inc. tax. (what does the AX mean...I didn't know if to get the ADA3000BOX or ADA3000AXBOX, but the AX is the newer one, right? Is this a 'mobile'?)

MSI Neo Platinum - $139 (zipzoomfly) - are there any problems I'm going to have with the above processor?

Audigy 2 ZS Gamer - $84 (after $30 rebate from icombo.com). Was wondering wether to sell this as the Neo Platinum has 7.1 sound and optical inputs...will I notice that much of a difference in sound? I wanted to use the optical cable to hook up to some Z680s.

I also have a preorder from BestBuy for the 6800GT, so am waiting on that. Also waiting to decide on the heatsink to see if the SP-98 is going to come out, if not the 948U(?) looks good.

So basically, am I going to have any problems with this? I have only built one computer before, a 2.4C Pentium, and everything has been working good.

Thanks,

Paul.
