So I'm putting together a new system from scratch and just want to make sure that the parts and pieces I'm getting will work in harmony.


Raidmax Smilodon ATX Case

Asus M2N-SLI AM2 Motherboard

EVGA GeForce 8500GT Video Card

AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ Processor

Mushkin 2GB Memory

Western Digital 160GB HDD


So what do you think? Will everything run copasetic?

Parts look fine, that's a nice looking case.

If you going to get 2 gigs of ram I would invest in a slighly better processor
If you can throw down another 20 or thirty bucks you notice all the difference!
