Sapphire ATI RADEON X800 XT Platinum Edition Video Card, 256MB GDDR3, 256-Bit, DVI/VIVO, PCI-Express, Model "100599" -OEM seems a bit pricey

Logitech X-530 5.1 Black Speaker System -RETAIL

Logitech Cordless MX Duo USB/ PS/2 104keys -RETAIL


ANTEC Life Style Series Black Case With 380W Power Supply, Model "SONATA"
use the power supply as well.

NEC/MITSUBISHI FE991SB-BK 19" SuperBright Diamondtron CRT Monitor –RETAIL

This is 1730 total how does it look. Obviously I need to cut back on some of the hardware becuase it's already over my buget (actually my buget is like 1800) and I still don't have a cooling system, burner, or stuff like windows. So please make suggestions where I could cut back and how...

Also if you could please make suggestions on a burner, network card, and cooling system I would really appreciate it. Especially a good cooling system.

I'm thinking of a BFG Geforce 6800 Ultra so please help. Also if you think Intel delievers better preformance please suggest a processor.

Thank in advance if you help! :)
 
Just noticed the Video card isn't compatable with the motherboard. Um if you could suggest the brand of ATI X800 XT I would appreciate it. I was thinking Saphire or Asus but not really sure. Screw the PE it's not worth the money.
 
drop that 300 watt powersupply and pick something good like an antec or a fortron powersupply in the 400 watt range
 
What about this:

Fortron 400W Power Supply For Intel P4 and AMD XP CPU, Model "FSP400-60PFN RET" -RETAIL

Um I don't really know a lot about power supplies so correct me if it's not compatable with my other specs.

Also I've decided on about every thing (the saphire is cheap and I'm going with it). Thank you for the suggestion of the Wincestor core, I'm going with that. Only thing I need is a cooling system if someone could help. Something good for not that much money. I don't plan to overclock and don't want to use water cooling.
 
dont worry about cooling if ur not overclocking, just get some half-desent fans and any stock cooling will work (hopefully)
