Hows it look? My question is, will the ram be compatiable with the mobo? The mobo dosn'et say what speed it takes up to..

Hmm. Yes it will be compatible. I dunno bout that case though I hate see throughs.. As for the PSU it looks unreliable. It doesnt show the rails which is bad. Also you might want to consider 1 gig of ram. I would get 2 512 sticks also. So get another PSU and consider a gig of ram.

well I plan on getting another 512meg or even possible a extra gig within a few months..
Im gonna be using a gf4 ti4600 also for a few months tell I get a job and take care of some tickets..

Just 512 would be cheap for now, and still plenty to last me a while.

Also I already have a water cooling setup, the only thing lacking in my setup is a good water block on the cpu, got a good block on my gpu now, but my cpu uses a koolance block.

If that 512 is just there for now, i'd go with some cheaper RAM, like PC-3200 not like OCZ or Corsair though. Then later drop in a gig of good stuff, like that PC4500 if they make 512 sticks. and still change the PSU...

Im gonna stick with the PSU, unless I can find another clear one for cheap..
If it works, **** it.. if it dosnet, then i'l buy a regular grey psu thats known good quality..

I'l try to find some single stick 512meg ram, I didnt know if you had to buy it in pairs or what, that was just the only thing newegg had.
I could also go with 4400, I dunno, I gotta do some more looking around.
