System Check!

[Sire]

For all those wiser and better informed than I can I have your opinion on the following system setup and any changes people might suggest (money is a factor)

AMD XP 2200
Soltek SL-75FRV KT 400 DDR
ATI Radeo 8500 128MB
Netlink 18in 300W
Sunon 80MM Ball Bearing Chasis Fan
Samsung 256 MB PC2700
LIteon DVD Drive
Total $1150 (NCIX)

Looks good over all. I would try to go with a different motherboard as you are only buying 333 MHz DDR. You should go to <A HREF="http:// www.newegg.com " target="_new">http:// www.newegg.com </A> and see what they offer for motherboards. I think you can get a Gigabyte or MSI Mobo for fairly cheap.

On question though, are you getting a HD with that?

good enough.
KT400 are much of a waste though. get just the same performance with a KT333.

is that a 300W PSU your getting? hope its a good brand. I reccomend you get larger, even if you dont need it all. a bit of headroom is nice, plus the PSU doesnt get as hot.

and what case are you getting?
