1st time building
I am getting ready to build my first computer and just wondered if you folks could take a look at these components to check for compatability or problems (I am most concerned about powering all the fans in the case with the power supply listed):
WD 1TB HDD http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822136236 Kingwin 730W power supply http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817121045 CoolerMaster HAF 932 Case http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119160 ASUS Crosshair III Mobo http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813131392 XFX HD4890 video card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814150359 AMD Phenom II x4 955BE http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819103674 Crucial 4GB Ram 2x2 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820148262 Thanks for any suggestions you can make |

Re: 1st time building
You should be concerned with more than just the fans with that power supply. Kingwin is a pretty crappy brand. Buy a decent power supply, I recommend the Corsair TX750W:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139006 XFX is not the best brand for ATI cards, we prefer Sapphire, PowerColor, Asus, and Gigabyte. Can't comment on the mobo/CPU/RAM, I'm not an expert on AMD systems.

Re: 1st time building
I would stay with the Crucial Ram at least it;s recommended and guaranteed to fit the AMD board, The G.Skil is for Intel boards> http://newgskill.web-bi.net/bbs/view...d=g_ddr3&no=36
http://www.crucial.com/store/listpar...l=ASUS&cat=RAM Follow Phædrus2401 good advice on the PSU the Kingwin is a little short on protection circuity and rated at 730w peak at 25c a temp your pc will not run at unless you keep it in a freezer. |

This struck me as amusing:
