I haven't seen amd athlon 64 x2 dual core mentioned anywhere, I'm leaning towards the amd athlon x2 4400, if that motherboard does support the x2 dual core processors, which should i go with premium or deluxe, which one is better, or has more upgradeability, ive been to the asus site and tried yahoo, and been on a bunch of sites off of pricewatch trying to figure it out ...

also is ddr (400) 3200 - 3 gb Corsair w/Heatsink (Twinx2048-3200c2) - $302 good ram, and is that price good, ive been told that its important to get quality parts and not just the cheapest ones i see, so am i going in the right direction ?

power supply - i want 600 - 700 w at least, im going to have an expensive video card, an audio card, at least 2 hard drives, and 2 gigs of ram and i know the more junk i got the more power i need, can someone suggest a good power suply thats at least 600 w or more, and i mean like by name and model number or even link

shin eysu g675 thermal grease (cools pc better) $14.00 ... do i want this ? this is way over my head, im seeing grease and water cooling and tubing,
What kinda fans do i need, i got 2 lasko window units, cant i just open the comp up and leave the laskos pointing toward it jk
but seriously HELP!!!
and i dont know if it was a joke but some1 mentioned a radiotor with the water coling ... i wanna stay away from the waterworks if possible
Any suggestions on which fans i need i guess, or do i need fans, sorry, this is my first time doing this, i have someone who will help me assemble the pc when i get the parts, and is there an assembly kit i need to buy with the screws and cables and all

and do u have a site for the video card that u were talking about

im going to get a wester digital 74 gig 10,000 raptor and a 250 gig 7,200 drive

im lost on picking a case to, dont care about looks, long as i will be able to stick all that junk in it ... any suggestions, be specific please, i read somewhere on this forum "black looks professional" ... that doesnt help lol
and thanx again people.
