Hardware Suggestions

[Wittigo]

I'm closing in on building my first computer and was wondering what you guys thought about it.

CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3500+
Motherboard: Asus A8V-Deluxe
Power Supply: Enermax 550W
RAM: 2x512MB Sticks of Corsair DDR400 XMS3200 Dual-Channel Memory
Soundcard: Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Gamer Edition.
Hard Drive: 160GB Serial ATA Seagate Barracuda.
Videocard: Radeon X800 XT or 6800 Ultra (Which would you guys suggest?)
DVD: NEC 8X Dual Layer DVD+/-RW Drive
CD: Plextor 52x32x52 CD-RW Drive
Case: Enermax Seahawk
Floppy: Samsung 1.44MB Floppy Drive
Fans: Vantec 80mm Stealth Fan

Would you suggest I get an Antec power supply or stick with the Enermax one and how are motherboards using a VIA chipset?

Looks good, although im not an amd expert anymore. X800 definately! Look at the results of my poll in the graphics card section.

Drop the Plextor Premium and the NEC DVD writer, and get the Plextor PX-712A drive(or the SATA version), it's awesome.
For vidcard, GeForce6800 GT would be a good choice, the X800XT and G6800U are too expensive.
The Seagate drive is not fast ot silent, thus I would get a Maxtor or Hitachi drive instead.
I would get another PSU and case as well, CM Stacker is a good case, and Antec PSU, or PCP&C or even Forton.
