DDR2 ram is going out of fashion.
Make sure your case can fit the GTX 260, its 10.5 inches.
The PSU will most probably work with that.

get the quad processor.. you're paying for 3 GHz why not upgrade to a quad at 2.6 or something

That cooler isn't any better than the ones that come with the processors in my experience.

ye get a quad.. the price difference aint that much, You only need a new cpu fan If you are gonna oc it.

btw dont u have a old dvd burner in your old comp or something? cuz why spend money on a new one if u have a one thats working?

don't build one yourself, get a good cheap gaming computer from the acer aspire series, i got one myself pretty good one for round 600euro

@DDR2 well, being serious, the differences between the DDR2 and DDR3 are not too big. Plus the DDR3 Rams cost round 20 euros more, each atm. ( well atleast when i compared 'em )

@Quad. Yeah, i am thinking of the quad solution, too. But atm all i want is a PC for a little gaming session in games like CSS, COD and stuff like that. can't i upgrade it, later, too ? ( if i want high graphical resolutions, i can also stick with my ps3 on the 32 inch LCD. )

@260GTX. Starzy. i didnt choose a random mid-tower by closing my eyes and pressing on the screen with my finger.

@Cooler. Ive seen the cooler in action and all i can say is,that it is silenced and does it job. Hmm, if you got any better systems for the same or abit more money, let me now =)

and Para... wash your mouth

And guys, again. I dont want a PC for Crysis being able to run it on maximum settings but playing some nice clan realted games with u. So dont expect me to spend more then 600 euros on it. =S

quad!

Well maybe mine was broken, but it was just as loud as the stock one and temps were worse. Now I have a Thermalright HR-01 plus, but that's a bit more expensive. Perhaps try a XIGMATEK HDT-S1283?

I didn't see a case listen so i was just sayin'.

updated with a new setting. i tried to add the stuff u told me as good as i could for the budget

you need more than 2GB of ram. 3GB minimum.

and you my good sir needs a new psu soon :P cuz your other one will fuck up xD. What gfx card will you use?

hmm edited.

Plus yeah myst, i know, i think of buying a bigger one asewll later )

Oh btw, i got 2 GB of ddr2 667 ram in my current one, too. does it work if i plug these into the enw pc, aswell or is it like throwing apples into a bag full of potatoes ?
