[QUOTE="Veritas_Vincit"]It won't let me get a Corsair 520, all it has is a Velocity Micro 500. If you guys can find me a better site, I'd be glad to comply.Killfox

[QUOTE="Veritas_Vincit"]It won't let me change my motherboard. The 850W power supply is from Velocity Micro, the site I'm ordering it from. I don't plan to do SLI, will 500W be enough?Killfox

so im guessing that this is a prebuilt and your not building it yourself??? Is that right??? and why???


Because I don't know a lot about computers, and my dad doesn't trust me to not screw up on building it myself.

I'm not building it on my own, I'm ordering it from a site, so 2400 seems reasonable.  And if Norton is crap, can you recommend me something that isn't?

Most people say premium, so should I get the 32 or 64-bit edition?

I'm using an air cooling system, will round cables make much of a difference?
