Plans for building first computer
Hey. I am thinking of building my first computer. I spent sometime finding the components ill need. I think the list is fairly complete but seeing as i've never built a pc before i'm not sure. This is what i have got so far:

-Kingston ValueRAM memory - 1024 MB - DDR II ( KVR667D2N5/1G )

-Lifetime Series 500W Psu

-Lite-on 20X DVD+/-RW Lightscribe Drive

-Western Digital 160GB EIDE Internal Hard Drive with 8MB Cache

-7300GT 256MB DDR2 Pci-e 666MH 1 Dvi-i 10.65GB/SEC HDtv Support

-ASUS AMD 690G chipset Socket AM2 AMD 64 Athlon Motherboard (M2A-VM HDMI )

-AMD ADO4800DDBOX Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core 4800+ 2.5GHz 1MB Cache Processor

-i think that i allready have a box that i can use

If you have any suggestions or alternatives to what i have listed please let me know?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
