Custom Comp, Suggestions/Critique

[DJS2]

Hey all, new to the forum, so sorry if this is in the wrong place.
I just want to make sure that everything will work together without problems. Also is there ANYTHING else i need? I think fans and thats it, anything else? I heard that for around 1200 i could do a lot better? Im building this for a learning experience (my first custom comp that im going to be building) and for a decent gaming computer (i would like to be able to run cs:s easily and possibly bf2) I dont want to spend any more than 1300.

Although not new to computers, im very new to the hardware and specifications aspect. I am pretty sure you're talking about a hard drive? What would i gain from a SATA HDD, and what would the cost difference be?

Im a person who likes to ask a lot of questions to learn so please bare with me Thanks to everyone who responds to help, i really apperciate it.

Your motherboard supports SATA-II HDD's. Get one of those. ATA-100 may be little slow. This is a pretty good one (I am using Samsung HDD's and they are very good).

I'd also suggest getting this instead of your Sony floppy drive.

Rethink about the monitor.. I've never heard of that brand. I'd go for a NEC, Samsung or Viewsonic. 17" CRT is kind of too small, too.

That free mouse comes with the combo - is very good. I am using one of them.

Good luck!

Cool only a $3 difference, not too bad. ill edit my first post and put that HD in then. Ill have to look into th usb/floppy thing. Im really unsure on monitors, id only like to spend 100-150max, 17-19, non-flatpanel, black. Ive had the same monitor for like 6 years lol. Thanks for all of your help, i really appreciate it. Any other comments or suggestions anyone?

For the monitor, go for this or this (or a Viewsonic).
