Help on custom pc

[nethrandr]

Hi guys,

Iam building a new pc for gerneral gaming and iam hoping to be able to run most games at mid-high setting. I want to make sure if these components will run together fine.
Tips on whether if i can get a better component would be nice.
Should i go dual core for the cpu? and is overclocking an option if i decide to try it out?

Budget: 800

Asus A8N-E nForce4 Ultra (Socket 939) PCI-Express Motherboard (MB-088-AS) £64.57

AMD Athlon 64 3700+ San Diego 90nm (Socket 939) - OEM (CP-150-AM) £123.32

Thermaltake VB1000BWS Soprano SuperMidi Tower - Black (CA-015-TT) £50.47

GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC3200 Value Dual Channel Kit CAS3 (GE2GB3200BDC) (MY-046-GL) £129.19

Nope they wont work, you have specced DDR2 ram with s939 which uses DDR memory. I'd get a tagan 480w instead of the thermaltake as well
