new computer. need assisstance

Yeah, need to do the link over again. From what I can see, it looks good. That's a good video card and nice CPU. Make sure the power supply is no lower than 350watts. 400 watts and higher would nice.
 
I highly recommend getting a gig stick instead of two 512 sticks. The 3800x likes to screw up in some games like BF2. Since your going to make a nice rig I would get two gigs instead of just one.
 
If you have the money sure, but I wouldn't go two gigs yet... a little on the high side. 1g is fine. If you play BF2 and the money, sure, go ahead. But I would wait until prices drop. His mobo is most likely dual channel, and he would need to go dual channel ram for the best performance. 2 sticks of 1gb ram each is great, but $$$. As long as the psu is 400W+ you should be fine. Nice vid. card...
