My Custom Computer, your opinion?
I've worked on this list for awhile, getting good deals, hardware, etc. Tell me what you think, and while everyone can say "Get <blah blah (insert item here) >", if it costs more, I probably can't get it. I don't have tons of money, and thats why this computer has such a low price. Tell me if its good, and any possible things wrong or bad.
Now, here's the link, write a review/rate it on newegg or post here.
Note: There isn't an ATX case on that list, because I already have a humongous tower to put it in.

Generally you should always assume otherwise, much more polite and remember you are on a programming forum, cleverer than average people tend to gather on programming forums; at least I'd like to think so.If you're stupid
As for reviewing your hardware, I dunno, I'm not really a hardware guy, aren't there hardware forums more suited?

The sites font sizes are pretty standard sized fonts, and those in the subSilver theme are the default size used by phpBB. There aren't a huge amount of rules to be memorized (that's why the mods gently remind you of them), but common courtesy is appreciated by all here. And it isn't so much the word itself as the undertone it has in the context in which it used. However, it seems like an honest mistake, so taking this thread back on topic...
Sounds like it'd be a pretty sweet little rig. And for the price, it'd be hard to beat, unless you were shopping at a Mega-store. But then you'd have no control over the components, software or anything. So all in all, I'd say that is a pretty nice setup.

Personally I would spend a little more money on the power supply. I haven't found a single 400 watt power supply for under $50 that would actually output 400 watts. That rating tends to be PEAK output and that only lasts for a few minutes and not continuous. Usually the continuous watt output on those cheap 400 watt power supplies is between 250 and 300.
They usually use a single 12 volt rail to generate all power and that is a bad design. You need at least two 12 volt rails for 400 and up if you want stability and REAL power output.
