Is all this stuff fine?

Hey,

I know the GPU is bad, but it is just a temp till I get an 8800GTS or something later on in feb.

E4300 Retail
2GB 6400 Geil http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-064-GL
P5N-E SLI 650 motherboard
FSP Sparkle Blue 500 Watt PSU
Samsung DVD writter http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CD-078-SA
MSI Geforce 6200 128MB http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-071-MS

Main use will be Photoshop and stuff. I will be overclocking, and will buy a better cooler latter, when I purchase the new GPU.

Any problems anyone can see?

If your going for a 8800, i would change that power supply.

Surely 620W is a bit much?

Purely for future purposes, though it does say 500 min and 600 recomened.

Or go for the Corsair 520 but your only have to change it again soon, when you start upgrading your parts again.

Will probablly change to the Corsair 520W then. I know many here are running it with an 8800GTX, so it should be fine

Well, about 2:40PM I ordered:

E4300
Corsair 520W
P5N-E
Geil Ram
6200 128MB PCI-E
Asus DVD writter

So, I am hoping it comes for tommorw... it is still in queue at the moment

You order at 2:30pm and hope it comes BEFORE tomorrow? Bloody hell you pay for the super expensive "Next Hour" delivery?

Does that include the pwnage that is the Geforce 6200 128MB

Seriously though, I am very psyched about it. I am upgrading from an Venice @ 2.7GZ, 1GB of cheap ram, and an AGP Epox Nforce 3 motherboard with an X800XT.

I have to admit, the only thing that is making me sad is the GPU, but hopefully I will be getting a 8800GTS 320MB, or I may grab an X1950 Pro, depending on what happens really.
