Is this build okay for hardcore work?

[obelisk282]

hi im trying to build a system for running a lot of applications at the same time like dreamweaver, photoshop, a lot of web pages and playing videos. the only game i will be running on it is warcraft 3

my question is if i have a q6600 will a motherboard like "EVGA 113-YW-E115-TR" with "NVIDIA GeForce 9300" chipset good enough? or i should get a better motherboard with a crappy video card

question 2: what is the hybird sli good for? is it worth going for? or is normal sli more worth it?

so far i have this

EVGA 113-YW-E115-TR LGA 775 NVIDIA GeForce 9300 HDMI ATX Intel Motherboard

RAIDMAX HYBRID 2 RX-530SS 530W ATX12V V2.2/ EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready Modular Modular LED Power Supply

Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Kentsfield 2.4GHz LGA 775 Quad-Core Processor Model BX80562Q6600

AFT XM5U 26-in-1 USB 2.0 Card Reader

G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F2-8500CL5D-4GBPK

LG 22X DVD±R DVD Burner Black IDE Model GH22NP20

I'd avoid Raidmax PSUs and IDE burners.

You don't need DDR2-1066 - DDR2-800 is fine.

Does WoW work on integrated video? You might want a HD 4670 or a 9600GT for that.

my board said "Memory Standard DDR2 800" is there any way you can oc it or something to make it take 1066?? and im not playing WoW just classic warcraft 3

You could probably make it work with DDR2-1066, but there's no reason to. For older Intel CPUs with a FSB, DDR2-800 is fast enough.

Also, as stated above, I'd go for a SATA DVD drive and a good PSU (such as Corsair).

 

[obelisk282]

yea was going for a sata dvd drive but pick the wrong one.
so how much does hybrid sli do?

Change the Raidmax to PC Power Cooling

get the 9600gt.

Hybrid sli wont do you any good on this board due to only 1 pci x16 slot.
