Hello everyone,
I've been reading the forums here for several months now and finally decided to join. Great place for computer information!
I've been wanting to build my own computer for some time now but have never really had the chance to buy the parts and put it together.
This is what I have planned to get so far:
Thermaltake Tsunami VA3000BWA Black Aluminum ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
ASUS A8N-SLI Premium Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 SLI ATX AMD Motherboard
eVGA 256-P2-N516 Geforce 7800GT 256MB
SeaSonic S12-500 ATX12V 500W Power Supply
AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Venice Socket 939 Processor
CORSAIR XMS 1GB (2 x 512MB) Memory
Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Sound Card
I already have a hard drive and a CD/DVD-Burner, which is why they're not in the list of things to get.
SLI - I would like to at some point, but not right now. I want to have my system ready though.
Will the Power Supply work with the motherboard? Is a 20+4-pin the same as a 24-pin?
I'm working on a budget of about $1100 (excluding shipping cost).
Comments/Criticism/Suggestions/etc.
