everything looks good, but im not so sure about the PSU. you might wanna take a loot at the ANtec SmartPower 400Watt, u wont need aynthing higher. and its about the same price.

Jeez, when did they sell Athlon 3700+ for so little -_- Just a month ago it was ~$220

Yeah, it looks like a nice build. It's better than my computer

the 430 watt neo power is more than enough, and is a great PSU, IMHO.
