Whew, those are all the links. Fifteen parts to the computer. I think that's everything I need. I'm building it from the ground up.
Could someone help critique the build? I'm pretty sure the PSU is more than enough, and that the computer will suit all of my needs. The only thing I'm unsure of is compatability all around, and whether or not I need anything else (i.e., screws or cables that wouldn't come with the hardware).
