hi first post here. decided a month or two ago i was gonna build a pc from scratch. been trying to gather as much info as i can on all the different bits and bobs and so far have bought:

amd phenom xII 550 be

gigabyte ma770t ud3p

corsair dominator dual channel ddr3 1600mhz

arctic cooling 64 cpu cooler

so 1st question is, have i bought a load of rubbish?
2nd q is, what psu should i buy? im intending on using an antec three hundred case with one optical drive and 1tb hdd.

thats about it for now i think,
any help much appreciated

alright then thanks i was thinkin corsair vx 550...
can you shed any light on the unlocking of the other cores? im intrigued...
also im gonna want to oc it-just because i can- is this a bit of a black art with dire consequences or is it pretty fool proof?

id like it to be capble of gaming although the xbox takes care of that. to be honest i just want a bloody good computer that doesnt struggle all the time. not to say i wont change my mind tho and use it primarily for gaming.
whats the deal with hard drives? i dont need massive amounts of storage so would i be best to have the os on the same drive as the rest of my files or have a designated drive just for the os and program files then another hdd for storage?
