The main thing my althon 64 will be doing is gaming.

I would have spent alittle more and got a althon 64.

I think windows x64 is a big waste of money.

Ok another question when a Althon 64 says its 3200+, 3400+, etc that means its equal in speed to a pentium 4 3.2?

I think a 450W PSU is fine I was looking at reviews on newegg of my psu this one guy was running and Althon X2 4000+ and a gig of ram with a geforce 7800.

Why do I need a DVD Burner im not going to be making any DVD's.

Its a 450W PSU.

Im getting a Antec PSU is that any good?

Update im getting the AMD Athlon 64 3700+ San Diego 1GHz FSB 1MB L2 Cache Socket 939 Processor will a 450W PSU be enough power for my system?

Ok here it is this is my first time build AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Venice 1GHz FSB 512KB L2 Cache Socket 939 Processor MSI K8N Neo4-F Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 ATX AMD Motherboard CORSAIR XMS 1GB (2 x 512MB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM XFX PVT45GUDF3 Geforce 6800GT 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 SATA NCQ ST3160827AS 160GB 7200 RPM 8M Cache Serial ATA150 Hard Drive TOSHIBA Black 16X DVD-ROM 52X CD-R 32X CD-RW 52X CD-ROM 2M Cache IDE Combo Drive RAIDMAX X1 ATX-909WBP Black/ Silver 0.7mm Japanese SECC Body / Aluminum Faceplate ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 450watts PS2 AT

So in other works the Althon 64 is a beefed up Althon XP

Ok is the Althon 64 and the althon xp the same chip just one is a 64 bit chip.

Google my best friend.

do this To Correct Windows Installer Do This: click Start, Run, and then "copy" and "paste" the following command into the box: %systemroot%\system32\dllcache\msiexec.exe /regserver (DON'T FORGET THE "SPACE" BETWEEN msiexec.exe and /regserver)

Ok I think this psu supports a 24 motherboard it has the 20pin connection then it has 4 extra plugpic

Im going to get a 20 pin to 24 pin converter.

Ok im getting a MSI K8N Neo4-F Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 ATX AMD Motherboard and it has a 24 Pin connector and the PSU has only a 20 Pin connection does the motherboard need the other 4 Pins?

I have the same problem but with quicktime I can install the plugin 50 times but the web site still tells me to dl it.

I think ZA is the best free firewall but ZA slowes you system down a bit the Sygate firewall does not, I think ZA is a better firewall for noobs.
