PC Build and Install done!

[Ace]

After a few days tinkering on some PC pieces I've kept for a while, I bought a Tower and a DVD drive and cooling paste, and tried building the PC from no instructions.

It took 2 days longer than I thought it would. Partially because I'm busy with school work/upcoming gigs.

All's good,

Intel i3 530 2,93 GHz.
Nvidia GeForce GT320 1GB
1 TB HDD WD 32 MB Cache
6 DDR3 RAM

Good enough?

Overkill ram much? If the purpose is for gaming than maybe a quadcore processor with more ghz, the graphics is a monster but i think probably a 200 series or maybe radeon 5770 would have made it to todays gaming standard, unless you a hardcore ultra gamer or if this is for work than yeah, would've gone for a SSD drive for speed unless you really needed a TB (or you could have got to internal drives or one external 1tb and an ssd for speed). Other than that this build is a monster but a stronger processor like an Amd or Intel i5-i7 with 3.0ghz(oveclock to 3.6) the power of the card and the ram makes up for the lack of power to the processor, dualcore. Overclock :3?

Tower case is sexy thou oh yeah mind telling me the budget of this ?

weird choice of parts . . .
an i3 than 6GB of RAM AND a GT320 .
why that core ? why not an i5 2500 at least ?

All parts excluding DVD, cooling paste and Tower were for free, from kind friends and from electric disposal centers. Even my W7 License came from previous owners, so I've barely payed 100 $ for the excluded parts.
