Just order the parts for my first home build

https://secure.newegg.com/NewVersion...Title=Possible


This is the newegg link should be here Monday or Tuesday.

Needless to say I'm pretty stoked about getting this up and running.

So here is my question since I'm new to Vista (32 or 64) does anyone see any possible problems cropping up or anything I should look for...?

Been reading the board here for a few days and so far not seeing any issues that directly relate to the hardware listed but I'm sure something will pop up just looking for a heads up maybe lol...

Thanks in advance.

Two 8800GTS on a single 500W won't work. You need a PC Power and Cooling 750W for two of those cards. They draw 26A @ 12V each.
