i'm here from england takin advantage of cheap usa prices, so ill be buying the case and monitor back home

here it goes

Gigabyte GA-7VRXP VIA KT333 5P1A3D RAID LAN V.2.0 RETAIL
GAINWARD/CARDEXPERT GeForce 4 Ti 4200, 4ns, 128MB DDR, Power Pack Golden Sample
AMD ATHLON XP 2000+/266 FSB PROCESSOR CPU - OEM
Crucial Micron 512MB 64x64 PC2100 DDR RAM, 184-Pin, CL=2.5-Unbuffered 2.5V, 6-Layers
WD WESTERN DIGITAL "SPECIAL EDITION" 80GB 7200RPM EIDE HARD DRIVE MODEL # WD800JB - OEM, DRIVE ONLY
Lite On 40X12X48 CDRW Model: RTL40125S-Retail
Microsoft Windows XP Professional - OEM
Teac 1.44MB 3.5 Inch Floppy Drive

877 without shipping

is that the correct memory? does unbuffered mean anything? if i did it wrong can someone suggest something else
how's the onboard sound on the 7vrxp, i plan to use it for awhile till i can get a proper sound card

oh, and when u buy a retail case, chieftec for example, does it come with internal power connectors for cd and hard drives?

any other changes or suggestions wanted, i'm tryin to keep the internal parts budget around $900
 
Looks good to me, but if you want to OC I'd go with some DDR333. Onboard sound is a BIG no no. If you buy a case, just make sure it has a 300+ watt psu in it and you'll be fine.
