a lot of people say dont go with the valueram if you plan on overclocking so thats why i added a few more choices


i will be OCing

thats about it, if the parts are bad or if im missing anythign ust tell me
 
The Athlon 64 3000+ Venice is probably the best of the 64 CPU's imo, cause you can overclock it to the top-of-the-range one quite easily.

DFI motherboards are good for overclocking and have a lot of features, so yeah, that's good too.

I don't think you need a 500-Watt PSU though, unless you're buying a powerful graphics card. 400-Watt should do.

OCZ is supposed to be the cheaper alternative to Corsair and has overclocking potential from reviews i've read.

I think you've got it all right.
 
i already bought a 9800 pro, agp card a couple of weeks back, and now i want to buy a full system

wheeee, wow i just started into this new computer building and i picked out good parts. wah hoo, now its the hard part im 14 and im new to building, im going to break everything, lol

wait should i go with the PQI OCZ OR Corsair, i will be OCing and people said stay away from the value ram if your going to oc, i think im going to go with the OZC, is that good
 
the samsung spin points are one of the best hdds. If you want some top quality RAM to OC, get some OCZ platinum Rev.2 they run at 2-2-2-5 timings stock. They cost more though, i think around 130 -140 on newegg.
 
so would that OCZ be the best ram for the price range around 80-100 dollars
 
Haha, I am 14 to and I built my first computer on sunday :p. It runs perfectly....I forgot one cable....3 pin floppy connector :-/. But after I saw that and plugged it in, everything worked! And I am posting from it right now!

You are smarter than most at first, here at CF alot of people build computers and some people pick different socket CPU's than motherboards and stuff. The building is easy, you'll do fine.

And ownage, I have a samsung spinpoint p sata 150 80GB hard drive and it is awesome! It is amazingly fast and the only hard part was finding the drivers for it so windows would recognize it because my motherboard man. (gigabyte) is too cheap to give me a sata floppy :-/. But they make great motherboards!
