First build jitters.

Jamsandwich · 28 Oct 2009 at 02:42

Hey folks, I'm just making sure everythings all good and well before I go and order stuff. This will be my first build, I've pretty much hit my budget with it aswell. I just wanted confirmation on the Power supply, I'm planning on getting a second 22" monitor some time during or after christmas and possibly a second 5850, I wasn't sure if 650w would be enough, or even if the case was enough.

It's mainly going to be used for gaming, graphic design in PS and Illustrator, and some video editing in after effects and Premier pro.

Heres what I came up with on my own:

I was also wondering if there was anything else I would need for the system, cables, cpu cooler, etc...

Any help is greatly appreciated and thanks for your time.

Do you plan to overclock? If you do then you'd need to get a cooler and some cooling paste otherwise it'll be fine.

Same mobo, cpu and gfx as me, sound build!

Aye buy a decent cooler for the cpu.

All the cables should come with the mobo. You'll most definately get a set of screws with the case too.

I would buy x2 nice quite 120mm fans for the case to ensure a nice supply of air over you nice new bits, the coolmaster comes with 1 120mm but i have OCD and need all fans to be the same in my case

I'm planning on overclocking at some point, but I think I might just get a few 120mm for now and use the stock cooler while I wait for my cash reserves go back up. xD
