So this is my first time building a computer. Heres what I came up with
Case: $139.99 + $18.99 Antec P180 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129154
PSU: $144.90 - $20 Corsair 620W http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=373110
MOBO: $214.99 + $6.14 - $15 Evga Nvidia nForce 680i http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813188010
CPU: $219 Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Wolfdale 3.0GHz http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115037&Tpk=E8400
CPU Fan: $59.99 + $6.13 Zalman CNPS 9700 NT http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16835118019
$35.95 + $7.40 Scythe NINJA PLUS Rev.B http://www.jab-tech.com/product.php?productid=3538
Ram: $69.99 + $4.99 G.Skill 2x 1GB http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820231114
GFX: $279.99 + $6.33 EVGA GeForce 8800GT Superclocked 512 MB http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130303&Tpk=8800GT+512
HDD: $119.99 Segate Barracuda 7200.11 (PR) 500 GB 32 MB SATA 3.0Gb/s http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148288
$179.99 Western Digital Raptor 150GB http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16822136012
DVD Drive: $31.99 + $5.64 ASUS20x DVD+R Lightscribe SATA http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827135157
I'm not sure about the mobo (don't think I need something that good?), ram (maybe pay more for higher quality stuff?), and the CPU fan (maybe I should just use the stock fan?)
I want to build a quiet rig so I think I made a good choice there with the case but I'm not sure about the fan. I mainly plan to use this comp for gaming, surfing the web, watching videos, and all that good stuff.
My budget is around $1,600 for the tower
I also need some help picking out a keyboard (looking for something that has a nice, clean look about it. Don't want some crazy gaming keyboard like the G15. maybe something wireless would be nice)
Any advice on any part of my build will be greatly appreciated
Thanks a bunch
