I have off and on for the past year wanted to build my own computer for the first time but i never had the time.

I got a better paying job and have a lot of free time and i am going to build a desktop computer for the first time.

I have already bought a Micro ATX case w/300 Watt powersupply.

I went and made a list of the components that i would like in my system,I have done my best to make sure that the stuff will fit but just making sure with you folk's.

There is my list.

If it's for gaming, you'll need a much better GPU than the 7200, I'd recommend a HD 4850: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131111

And if you can afford it, go for a 780G motherboard, you'll get Phenom support and a much better chipset: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813186141

And you won't really need a 6000+ X2 for the things you do, you can save some money and go for this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103212
Or if you want to try your hand at OC'ing, definitely pick up the 5000+ X2 Black Edition.

Thank's for the help worship,I think i am going to stick with what i have posted on first post and see how everything goes and performs.I can always upgrade more to my liking in the future.

Will everything on my org. post work properly?
Also for a operating system i am going to try Linux,I have Vista and hate everything about it.
 
Listen to worshipme. That GPU will not satisfy your needs. Get at least a 8 Series or a HD 4 Series.


I am not really wanting to upgrade the gaming stuff because i know i will not have a lot of time for it,Besides i can always upgrade in the future.

I know for the next 2 years i don't plan gaming much because i will be doing more important things.

So i still never got an answer,Will everything work properly?
I will be ordering soon so need to know.
