For the compuplus ones, you need to copy the link, sorry.

1)Does this look good?
2)Will putting on heatsinks on the ram void my warranty?
3)Will using a 3rd party heatsink void my CPU warranty?
4)Will using a 3rd party heatsink void my VGU warranty?
5)I'm a bit nervous about building, the problem is that I know where the CPU, RAM, Video Card, and other things go, but I
don't know how I'm going to connect all those wires? So anyone have a really good website or book recommendation for me
that can really help me build?
6)Will my PC bottleneck?
7)Is the audio good? I mean the Speakers?
CoolI know I'm using the X800 Pro but I need the cheapest PCI-E card.

Thanks for the help.

Honestly, I don't have time to look through all of your links But... yes to both questions I quoted.

Also with the money you save you can get a Audigy 2 ZS from ZipZoomFly.

On my first build this helped me out a lot its more of a reference book but it covers almost everything.

Also go to your local book store and see what they have.

I agree with Just say no to MSI. My K8N Neo plat. has been nothing but headaches and trouble.
