Creative Sound Blaster Audigy ES 5.1
Liteon Combo 52x/32x/52x + DVD 16x
ViewSonic 19po P95F+

Do you think its a good combinaison??!
 
I don't see any real weak points in that configuration.

The only thing I could suggest is to get good ram, something with low latencies and to get a gig of it instead of 512. If you had the cash for a 9800xt you should have the cash for this.

Maybe consider purchasing a name brand PSU. I wouldn't trust my baby to a generic POS if I had a choice.

Nice box though, you're gonna be happy with how it turns out.
 
Definitely get a quality PSU.

80 GB of storage might be a little light for 3D work, especially with the price of hard drives nowadays. 512Mb of RAM is definitely not enough if you're serious about the 3D. Even gaming benefits from 1GB these days.

All I've done is agree with the above poster... :)
