Hey guys.

I have a few ideas and a few parts already for an upcoming computer build, and I need to know what you guys think about it.

AMD Phenom processor (not sure what model, but either the 8750, 9750, or 9850)
Western Digital 320GB hdd
Antec Micro LT case (comes with 400w psu, which is sufficient)
3GB of DDR2 1066
(not sure on motherboard, have heard mixed reviews... any thoughts?)
ATI 3750 512mb gfx

Let me know guys!

(PS please don't suggest Intel, I know they're faster and whatnot, but I REFUSE to buy their products for personal and moral reasons.. lol)

2 or 4 GB or RAM to have dual channel on all sticks.

Bigger case and bigger PSU. Dont know what that one is but I'd like to have plenty of room and airflow.

And of course Intel.

Get the Phenom X4 9850.

Also, please reconsider your PSU choice. A generic PSU is a good way to end up with lots of trouble for your PC. Get something good, or don't bother.
