Here are the parts.
I know I went through this with a few #LD people, but I really really need to be 10000% sure that everything is right.
Are there any pieces I'm missing/incompatibilities with parts?

NOTE: I already own the GFX card, so don't list that as a missing part.

Proper CPU cooler?

Unless he's planning on overclocking it, the stock cooler should be fine.

I don't need any overclocking.
If I do decide to overclock it, I can do that later.

What card do you have currently btw?

Stock coolers have been sufficient for years now. As for the GFX card. Well, just go out and buy something in the 150$ mark.

He already has a card

I guess I misread that part. Welp.

This is the card(s) I have. (I won 2 in a contest, but I plan to sell the other to pay for the computer.)

Stop reminding me that I need a new computer... and monitor... and money...

This.

Get a job.

>get a good graphics card
>doesn't fit in current case
>can't afford new case

bawww ;___;

Anyways, that set-up seems pretty good Migs. Just one question- you do have money besides the potential profit from selling that spare card, right? Because I doubt it would cover your entire cost.

Well I have roughly 150 dollars, then the 250 from the card is 400 dollars. My Dad agreed to pay the rest.

EDIT: Ooh, July 4th sale. I'm gonna buy this monitor instead. Just to make sure, there's no way this monitor could be incompatible with my current set up right?

nope, your monitor and graphics card both use DVI so you're golden
