Build my first pc. any advice please?
Question:
after searching on the inerent i have come up with the following spec:
ASUS SKT-775 P5B DELUXE motherboard
Enermax® INFINITI 700 Watt Psu
INTEL CORE 2 DUO E6600
SAMSUNG HD SERIAL 500GB-16MB
LITEON DVD±RW/DL 20x6x20x8x LH-20A1P

WINDOWS XP/VISTA (DUAL BOOT)
can you tell if the system is any good?
are any improvements needed?
are the components all compatiable?

Answer:
Would suggest using the Corsair memory as it is the only brand that i have never ahd a configuration issue with on the motherboard and havign to set timing for the memory. It works on every major brand of board. It cost a little mor but the lack of headache is worth it. Also Personally I prefer the nvidia cards and the 7550 gt 256 mb card is great and runs everything I need fantastically. Would suggest going to the 800 mhz memory as well as the board is rated for 533 667 and 800 so using slower memory would not be good. I mean if you are going to buy something that is capable of faster speeds why use slower stuff
You shouldn't be asking "are the components all compatible?"
Read the motherboard specs to confirm. If so, you should be good.
If not, go to the motherboard web site and use the Forums for advice.
