While everything there looks fine, you'll probably be much better off in the long run with a better power supply, especially an Antec. The Antec Sonata II, which is an all-around excellent case, comes with a TruePower power supply, and will be much better than the Cooler Master you already have selected. Also, consider going with something like the Corsair XMS memory instead of the Patriot. Lastly, what games are you planning on playing? It's possible that the X1900XT may be overkill for what you're looking for.

I would recommend a case with better cooling than that Centurion 5. May I suggest the Centurion 534?

i'll repost this from your previous thread (just in case you don't check it anymore):

just wondering, how old are you? and do you have a pretty high income (no need to know the amount, just a yes/no answer). the reason i ask is DX10 cards come out either end of this year or beginning of next year (i forgot which) and those are supposed to be real powerful. if you are able to save up a bit of money by then, getting the x1900xt is a good idea. if you're not going to have too much disposable money in 6 months, maybe getting a 7900GT for ~$250 is a better idea so you'll have $150 saved up and you'll probably be able to sell the 7900GT for at least $175, leaving you with just $75 needed to be saved over a 6 month period to get a DX10 card. (DX stands for Direct X). just a thought

It's compatable, but I sugest that you buy socket AM2 instead of socket 939. Performace wont be improved, but it will give you an upgreade path. Or If you can wait 5-6 weeks, Intel will be releaseing conroe on July 23.

EDIT: There is a better deal on the same video card but in a retail box (the hot deals forum).
The one you chose is OEM with no bundle or warrenty and it costs more.

I have a feeling that unless you want a Core2 (Conroe) in the from of a HP or Dell you'll be waiting a lot longer then 5-6 weeks.
