Everything is in Canadian dollars by the way.

I'm probably going a little overboard, but I want to future proof myself. :D Plus I spend a lottttt of time on the computer.

What do you think? Are they compatible?
And this is gonna be my first build. I'm gonna try to buy the parts within a week! :) Finally!! I've been wanting to for 6 months.

Answer 1

Monitor go with Asus lcd screen the same price sleek looking and free shipping on newegg plus its Asus



Cpu great pick but ditch intels stock push pin heat sink since your Q9550 will run very hot dip some change into a new heat sink. like a zalman S9700 or a cooler master V8



Motherboard I like but will go with Asus P5Q-E board great overclocker great layout and runs cool and energy saver.



ASUS P5Q-E

Hard drive GOOD



PSU Great



Case I do not I feel like its not gonna work lower cost cases are a headaches and with your top of the line cpu and your Corsair TX 750W

with 140mm fan blowing up in your case on the top panel will create some heating issues like hot boxing your computer since your case does not have a top exhaust fan like a antec 300 or 900,1200 or the haf 932 or the new scout that I can't wait to get my hands on one CHANGE YOUR CASE.

ram I would go with G-Skill but your ram is good but is intended to work with sli borads but still the same...hmm

Answer 3

Nice. Questionable monitor and I'd go with an EVGA 8800GT instead, same chip, just a little hotter, should be fine in that case though and with an aftermarket cooler

Answer 4
