Sergey's new computer! (for now) REVISITED

Hey everyone,


It's been a while since I did a post, so here's one!

So as some of you might have read, my ambitions might have been a little bit too big. After finding out what my budget for building a new PC was for me, I instantly decided to drop those parts I have found. I have already ordered the memory, processor, and motherboard so I'll just list them for your own information, incase you decide to build a computer like mein ;-)
  • Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550, 2.83 GHz
  • Gigabyte GA-EP45T-DS3R Motherboard
  • Super Talent DDR3 Dual Channel memory, 1333MHz, 2GBx2 (ordered two of those kits, so in total 8GB of memory)
I haven't bought a video card yet, but I am still planning to buy the BFG nVidia GTX 285, but only one and I'm not going to put it into SLI.

As for the processor, I might overclock it to 3+ GHz, but I highly doubt I will overclock it out of the box just yet.

If you guys have any suggestions, just comment or send me a message! Thanks.

~~Sergey

EDIT: I bought some parts today, here's a picture with tags: LINK
I bought a XION AXP 100 case, a Seagate 1.5TB Hard drive (Barracuda), a BGF nVidia GeForce GTX 285 OC 1GB, and an OEM DVD+/-RW DL from Micro Center with Litescribe.
