I am putting together a new gaming PC, I will list the current items I
have already.

Motherboard= Fatal1ty AN9 32+
Processor= AMD athlon 64 Dual Core 5000+ 2.6ghz
Memory= Crucial 4gb (Kit) CT2KIT25664AA53E
Hard Drive= Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM 400 GB
Video Card= nVidia 7600
Case= Sunbeam UV Led uv blue reactive clear case (80mm fans((5 case
fans)
Power Supply= Apeva/500wat/ATX/dual 80mm/led fan
CPU cooling= Themaltake TMC A3CPU COOLER
Others= Sunbeam Chromatic Windmill

Do you want this to play the latest games? Like Crysis ?

If so, my recommendation is WAIT and then build one of these:

#1
x38 mb, quad penryn, g90, ddr3

potential cost: $2k+

#2
$266 E6850/Q6600 come July 22nd, p35 or 965p mb, ddr2, 8800 gtx

potential cost: ~$1500

hdd = western digital raptor 74 or 150 gig for both but get a case
that has a fan blowing on it.

Ok cool, I think i will be getting it around mid july, and im going
with the XFX 7950GT 512mb video card, Westren Digital 74gb Raptor
10,000 RPM the crucial memory but two 1gb sticks for 2gb like everyone
else suggested. Fatalty1 motherboard AMD proccesor havent found a good
power supply and case, thats my only thing left, motherboard comes
with really nice auido card, fits my surround sound perfect.. Dropping
the CPU cooler and Windmill, so does anyone have any good power
supplies and cases that dont cost like a whole lot and i need a case
with an intake fan on the hard drive, im almost done just need case
and power supply, any help in that area?
