    Default First Build - Advice

    Hi guys, I'm attempting my first PC build. Appreciate some advice on choice of components. Looking to build a reasonable priced gaming m/c with potential to extend later. Current thinking is as follows:
    CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E6750
    Motherboard: Asus P5E
    Graphics: HIS HD 3870 512MB GDDR4 PCLe
    Memory: 2 x 1GB Corsair TWINX XMS2 8500 DDR2 EPP

    Hiper HPU-5K680 Type R 680w Modular power supply
    Antec P182 Case

    Other bits yet to decide (HDD etc.). Anyone see any compatability probs. Although P5E supports CrossFire, the HIS Graphics card requires CrossFire-X so I probably can't double up in the future, but I don't anticipate needing to.
    Appreciate comments/concerns. Thanks in anticipation!

    The Doc
