Ok I got some suggestions:
First of all, why take a micro atx when you buy a atx chassi?
Take this instead, very good to clock and crossfire.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128358
Also here, change the PSU.
Take the deal the ocz 700watt, i was going to suggest a 450watt/550watt corsair but then there was that good deal.

(just look down a bit)
Also GPU, take the one dest said.
For the HDD, take this instead, fast, bigger, quiter, same price.

And monitor i dunno about.
And ram would be fine.
THo i would suggest for CPU if you can afford a E8400.
VERY good cpu.

Wtf is it with you and micro atx motherboard.
Take a regular ATX (NOT micro) instead.
Faster, more ram slots, more stable.
I would suggest you to pay a little more and get the combined price for
Original price: $266.98
Discount: -$40.00
Combo Price: $226.98
If you don't want to then I suggest you to buy a corsair 450watt.
(it will be the same price because you get -40$ discount with the combo deal) and its a very good motherboard, also very good at overclocking.
Got one myself.
Regards Humper

Also good not like any difference.
I wouldn't take the cheaper motherboard if I were you.
The HD is slower (lower cache).
PSU good, but the other offer is better.
GPU good but the other one better/the same with a nicer price.
Unessesry expensive ram.

Less than $11 a gb is expensive ram? Well, fuck.
140gb extra > milliseconds of difference.
Fuck Sapphire and their 'shorter' PCB that uses cheaper parts. They don't even cover the ram with their retarded heatsink.
I'd rather a fantastic PSU than one with bigger numbers.

I also like corsair alot better but I have a friend with ocz and its also works great.
and 78/4 = 19,5
Right?
That means 20$ / GB, and I thought he was only going to use 2gb.
Because of 32bit.
Between 16mb cache and 32mb cache its ALOT more then a few ms.
Really depending on what you do.
I'd say the sapphire version is good. Bought it to many builds and it works great. I don't know about the other card thats why Im saying like that.
And I know, a 700watt could be worse then a 500watt.
Really depends on ampere.

The RAM has a $35 MIL on it, if he orders soon he can take advantage of it.

The difference between 16MB cache and 32MB cache is absolutely nothing.

Where did he say he was using a 32-bit OS.

I'll rather go with a quad, but your budget isn't possible.
-$30 for a OEM dvd drive?! Pathetic!
Shave a few dollars off with a lite-on oem drive.
-22" is monitor nice and all, but you can save a few more here if you have
gone with a 19".
-Processor is fine for your build, stick to it.
-Go with a better motherboard like one from Asus, Gigabyte, or MSI.
-Case: Not too fond of those bling bling types, but if that's what you like, then go for it.
-Graphics: The HD4850 or the cheaper version HD4830.

I Agree about the monitor, 22" was a bit much for me, just got a bit carried away. Ill go with a 19"
lol
Would you have any suggestions for Motherboards or dvd/cd drivers?
