New build

[spp]

Hi all,

It's been a few years since my last upgrade and so I'm a bit behind with the latest stuff. Is this all compatible, and is there anything you would replace. I'll be using it for a mixture of programming, game playing and will probably have a go at overclocking. Thanks

THE PSU! Hiper's not been good the last year or so. Lots of DRAMATIC failures

EDIT: Better the Corsair HX 520w (here)

Swap the motherboard for a Asus P5B, P5N or a Gigabyte DS3P, and ditch the Hyper as hp7909 says. Other than that it looks great.

Might be worth getting a second hard drive to keep your data separate from your windows / programs drive. Having Virtual Memory off the boot/program drive helps with performance.

Thanks for the input guys. Power supply has been changed. I'll mull over the mobo situation a bit longer.
