You've been waiting quietly long enough.

Looks like a good build. Are you planning on using your old computer's floppy, CD-ROM, mouse, keyboard, speakers, etc?

I've got speakers and a CD-ROM but other than that, no.

I have never heard of that power supply company. I would go with the 450 watt Fortron.
