Hello, I might order a new pc tonight and I want you to rate it
I already have:
1 GIG of kinston RAM
74GB Maxtor memory
And a DVD - CD rom player so I need a new : videocard - processor - mobo - And a Case
This is what I came up with :

AMD 64 3500+
Nforce 3 Ultra
ATI X800XT PE
Antec 1000AMG No PSU
Zalman ZM400B-APS 400 watt

I think that's fairly good, I have 1 question though, will 400 watt be enough?
 
Be sure to get a nice name-brand psu (PCP&C is the best one but Antec, Enermax, OCZ is also good choices).
 
74GB Maxtor memory

<sarcasm>
I didn't know Maxtor made memory! Wow, you got a lot of memory, but I didn't see a hard drive mentioned.
</sarcasm>

Sounds like a Western Digital Raptor to me, the only other drives I know of in that particular size are ultra-expensive SCSI drives.

Anyways, 400 Watts should be fine, you don't have a load of drives or anything that requires ridiculous amounts of power.

Looks like a decent setup to me. Enjoy. Don't forget to remove the protective tape from the bottom of the heatsink/fan.
