New Computer

[matty88]

Hey,

Deciding to spend some of my hard earned on a new system, here's the specs I've come up with, just want to make sure it's all compatible

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-MA770-UD3
CPU: AMD Phenom II X2 Dual Core 550 3.1GHz 7MB Cache Black Edition
RAM: Corsair DDR3 4GB PC-10600/1333 (2x XMS3 2GB) TW3X4G1333C9A
DVD Burner: LG GH22NS50 SATA DVD Re-Writer
Video Card: Gigabyte N95TOC-1GI
Case: Coolermaster Elite 310

Keeping my SATA Hard Drives and IDE CD burner, until I can afford a Bluray player

Not sure what wattage PSU I should run though, the Antec Online Calculator only said 133w :S

Windows Vista 64 Bit DVD

Sounds good. You could probably get away with the included psu with the case if it has one. Otherwise a 450w or 500w quality psu would be ample for that setup. People will say go 600 or 750w or whatever for that system, but its simply overkill. I've got a similar AM2 setup running off a Zalman 360w psu and had no problems whatsoever.

Cheers man, I'll go 500w for safety, Vista should be alright to support the hardware yeah? Been so long since I've built a computer myself and have let Vista slip through my fingers lol
