I'm gonna use my old monitior and this will be my first build. Anyone got any comments or suggestions. Am I missing anything?

Thanks-

hmm ur getting a pretty descent video card, i would suggest AMD processors.

also there will be no use wasting money on a floppy, no one uses it anymore
 
This setup looks fine. I am actually going to be building my first computer in a week or two and I am planning on getting the same graphics card. From what I have read and saw its the best card for your buck.

EDIT - I would also suggest going AMD.
