and a few other little things, like cables, Floppy, Card Reader, DVD DLRW, etc..
 
Very nice go luck on the build hope you don't run into any problems
 
hopefully I will not. Its been since 2002 since I built something for myself. During the Hurricane Rita scare some how my AGP died on my desktop so I've been using my laptop for my PC for months..

I am going to try XP x64 out and see how I like it. It should hopefully all be here thursday or friday. I have it shipping to my office so I can build it and install the software at work. Then go home and try out WoW and some games I have bought and havent been able to play.
 
nice just one thing I realised is 74gb going to be enough just wondering heck you have a laptop and another pc you might have more than enough space. O yea dude make sure ur sig is less than 10 lines or 10 I don't want you to get flamed at ;)
 
yeh nice computer there...but i think youll require more than 74gb...unless its a specifically gaming comp...for WOW :p
 
Fixed the sig. Thanks :)

As far as harddrives go. The Raptor is for my OS and games. I also have a 7200RPM SATA 300gig Drive to store everything else on. I have a Maxtor 300gig Backup Drive Also to back up some of my important files.

Does anyone know if anyone makes a enclosure so I can run all my old IDE drives. I have 4 that I want to keep running that I keep some important files on. I just do not want to put them in my case and eat power and generate more heat.
 
yea 300 is more than enough, sorry im not to sure i have any opions for you on your IDE situation sry
