I was wondering if the following parts are compatible or if any of you have recommendations. I also need help finding a

I wouldn't spend that much on a 150GB HDD, but that's just me.

This second link/combo is no longer available........ but the first one seems like a good deal.

Fuck, the second one was quad core(AMD BE) And it was good.

The HD is supposed to be very good, fast and very reliable. I was hoping to get something good so it would last longer.

Also does anyone know about a power supply? I really don't understand them.

I read somewhere on Toms that the Phenom I processors were inferior to the Phenom II in pretty much every way, especially in the heat and overclocking department, you may want to look into that. I personally would go with the Phenom II.

As for a power supply: OCZ, Antec EarthWatts, Corsair all good brands. From AMD`s site they recommend atleast a 450W supply for one 4850 and 550W for crossfire.

Therefore I would go for something in and around 700-750W and then you`ll have plenty of headroom.
