I'm building a new pc, too

Fri Jul 21 00:49:14 UTC 2006

and i want some advice...
i want a form factor system... amd64... that's going to require sata
hdd... probably a sata dvd+rw, and i want an external hdd (500 gb. this
model: HDWDWDG1C500 ), is there any compatibility issues i should look
for? also, i'm considering this card (VIASN6200256) ... basically... i
want this whole thing (+lcd monitor) to cost LESS than 1000. i'm still a
student, but i feel like i need a new case, etc...
any suggestions would be t3h pwnage.
thx
Ike
