to save us the hassel of clicking on all the links...add in the names on the post....most of us will know of the part ur talking about
 
The Western Digital IMO is a waste of money. If you ahve the money go for it though. I would much rather have more space though.

Also what exactly ar you using this computer for and how much are you willing to0 spend? Are you going to overclock?

Get a MX510 rather then MX500. You can get it from amazon for the same price and you can get it in red or blue.

It looks like you are going to be using the PC for gaming so don't go with Intel. Get an AMD rig.
 
If you're building for gaming....avoid Intel like john kerry. I would suggest the AMD 3500 as it gives the most bang for the buck.

I am planning on doing some video capture, so wouldn't the WD Raptor be better than a 7200 RPM HDD? It will be usd for gaming mostly. Also I would like to listen to some music, so if you recommend a motherboard change do not recommend one with a VIA chipset. It clashes with my headset and I don't want to get a PCI USB card for the sole reason of using my headset.
 
Dual channel=, since you'-re not ocing=, you'-ll be wanted the 6most stable=, and 6most powerful syste6m at stock=, this will help you.
