	Looks good, except you only need one motherboard Right now, probably the best bang for the buck is the E4300, however for 4M L2, the E6420 is hard to beat quote iz255 I am building my first computer, hoping for some advice: ASUS P5B Deluxe/WiFi-AP laga 775 intel p965 express atx Hard Drive: Se LITE-ON 20X DVD±R DVD Burner with 12X DVD-RAM Write Black IDE Model LH-20A1P-185 - OEM Antec Performance One P180B Black Tower Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3320620AS 320GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM Foxconn FV-N88SMCD2-ONOC GeForce 8800GTS 320MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Video Card HIPER HPU-4K580-MS ATX12V v2.2 580W Power Supply OCZ Platinum Revision 2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model OCZ2P800R22GK ASUS P5B Deluxe/WiFi-AP LGA 775 Intel P965 Express ATX Intel Motherboard Any advice will help...

	bahhhaha... bhenning is a tool.... dudme the ASUS P5B IS A MOTHERBOARD and the e6320 is bang for buck... Are you seriously going to use those extra features, on the motherboard, because unless you know you definately am, i would just grab a Gigabyte 965P-S3... it's cheaper and does a great job... and get the 3.3 version... That's a nice case... The HDD's good... I'd get a different power supply... and you could get cheaper RAM i think... easy.. and an e6320 CPU... ---- ALSO TAKE THIS TO THE COMPUTER BUILDING FORUM... http://www.neoseeker.com/forums/17/ ------------------- "Good-bye, my friends..." - Goku http://img14.exs.cx/img14/186/108954_photo1.gif

	If you see, I think he insulted himself. BHenning said he only needed to list one otherboard, because the original poster listed two motherboards, then Dragon Ball Z came along and misread what he said... Just so ya know, Goku, BHenning is neo-staff. Remember those hardware reviews?.. ------------------- Asus P5B C2D e6320 4MB 1.86ghz @ 3.27ghz OCZ Plat Rev2 4x1GB DDR2 800 @ 934mhz HD4870 @ 830mhz/1000mhz Old School and Rock Stable

	ROFLLMFAOMYWAFFLE ya bhenning is neo staff And the P180B is an amazing case. Seperate compartments for PSU keeps heat from PSU out of chassis. Just ask cheesy Id get the 8800 from EVGA, Amazing warranty, even if you overclock. Switch out the PSU...I wouldnt trust a modular PSU. People like them and all, because they are convenient, and allow better cable management, but the P180 ha no sidewindow, so seeing the cables isnt a problem, and on modular power supplys, its been proven you lose some power where the cable connects to the unit, plus you run the risk of one of the pins bending. you are probably better off with a nice ANTEC, Seasonic, Silverstone, thermaltake or other name brand PSU for that powerful machine. nd mkesue you read the reviews, people will post if the cables are long enough or not which youll want to know. Antec truepower cables are known to be long because of this cse, so you should be good with that.

	Take a look at this PSU: http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=316505 A lot more powerful, reliable, and it isn't modular. As mentioned above, modular PSU's are basically just for computers with side windows, and you lose a bit of power between the connectors on the PSU. Good thing is, is that if you order from that place, depending where you live, 2-day shipping is only $1.99!
