Check my download box

[Scott Salisbury]

I'm building a download PC with a bit of storage.

This is what I have:
- Asus Vintage AE1 Barebones System - AMD Socket 754
- AMD Athlon 64 3000 Newcastle 130nm (Socket 754)
- Corsair 512MB DDR Value Select PC3200 CAS2.5
- Western Digital Caviar Special Edition 320GB 3200JD SATA

I already have a 200GB hard drive in my main machine (sig) which I will swap and put into this download box, giving a total of 520GB of storage. I am also thinking about including a 150GB Raptor on that list too to replace my 74GB one as they do look quite sexy

Not including the 150GB raptor, it will cost a total of £281. Which is really not bad at all.

Does this look alright? Any changes/suggestions are welcome.

Yeah I was thinking about the sempron, but unfortunately the barebone system I picked doesn't support sempron for some reason. So that means I'd have to get the motherboard, case and psu seperately. I just worked it out and I'm saving about a 10er by going for the sempron.

However, I am tempted by the DVDRW idea. I already have a DVDRW on my laptop but it would be convenient to have one on their too.

Do you have any recommendations on DVDRWs? No price range preference.

I like it trigger, I like it a lot

OMG is it just me or is that case bundle kit an awesome deal? 30 quid for all that? Impressive.
