Finshed my rig what do u think?

[Rec0n]

I've been doing a lot of research as to what parts would be the best buy. I decided to build my own computer from scratch and this is what i came up with.

MotherBoard

Memory

Video Card

Hard Drive

CD/DVD burner

Floppy Drive

Processor

Stuck on which CD/DVD Rom drive to get. N e suggestions? What do you think of my rig so far?

Hi,

I seriously doubt if anyone will click all those links (especially if you have dial up and have to wait forever for them to come up) to see what you propose as a computer. Why not just put the details down so one can take a quick look and provide you with meaningful feedback.

NewEgg also has a Lite-On DVD+CD burner combo that is also a dual layer burner for only about $40 more than the one you have listed. This is a VERY nice price and what has always been a VERY nice company.

Good Luck!

RecOn all nice choices you forgot two thing however a good case and power supply, I’ve built three P4E's so far and let me tell you need a case with extreme cooling capabilities and a power supply that wont run out of gas on you. I suggest the following-

at the very least get a case with at least one side fan and a top fan the P4 Prescott's get very hot and the heat must be taken away from the heat sink fast as possible.
