Hey guys, I've been looking around here and found this to be a handy resource for anyone that knows a thing or two about computers but doesn't build 'em for a living. I'm a professional draftsman and my current craptastic eMachine just can't handle ACAD 2007 (That's what I get for buying in a hurry). I'm about to finish a job that will drop 1500$ on me and I plan on building a much better rig.
If you guys could take a look at this and tell me what's good, what's bad and what's meh I'd appreciate it.
Case COOLER MASTER Centurion 5 CAC-T05-WW
MoBo: ASUS M2N-Plus SLI Vista Edition Socket AM2 NVIDIA nForce 500 SLI
Graphix card: EVGA 512-P2-N635-AR GeForce 7950GT 512MB 256-bit GDDR3
PSU: ENERMAX Noisetaker II EG495P-VE ATX12V 485W
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5200+ Windsor 2.6GHz 2 x 1MB L2 Cache
RAM: Kingston HyperX 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800
HDD: Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD3200KSRTL 320GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s
I know the PSU is considered at little small these days, but I spent a lot of time looking for something that would completely power the Video card off of one rail so I could avoid the incompatibility issues I've read about with multi 12V rail PSUs.
