Default Possible New Build

This wouldn't be immediate for me, but I would just like a) an opinion and b) a confirmation that these parts will work right. I'm on a budget of about $500-600 (more the longer I wait). The other computer I built was so old that there was nothing to it and my dad's friend gave me it and all it needed was a hard drive but he took it apart to be funny.. which he wasn't, but that is actually what got me started on comptuers. This is what I have right now:

looks good. I reccomend a better graphics card (8500GT at the very least) , a Full ATX motherboard. Also, this is just me, but i would go with a WD Harddrive instead of anything else. And a brand name Power Supply Unit, not a generic one that comes with the case. Lol JMOT Looks good though!

Thanks, both of you. I will get it better than that. That's just preliminary. I'm not ordering it until after February at least. The other question I had was, I won't have any problems with the OEM OS will I? Other than I can't put it on any other system. Never delt with OEM before.

Thanks,
Adam

Actually OEM windows is better than retail. with OEM, you can reactivate it for use on another computer. If you want to transfer it to a new pc in the future, you can. Not so with Retail versions. Tis a gift =D Lol
