    These parts should work right?

    Grabbing a new pc from Newegg. Going to try for my first build. These are the parts. Going with a basic build for Gaming. ( LOL,WOW,D3, and maybe BF3 if this setup will hold it.)
    600w Power supply.
    a sony dvd re-write drive
    2 used Hdd's 500gs and a 160g- Both will be re formatted with windows 7

    My question is will I be able to use the 600w and hdds with this build. There from my last pc and wasn't sure if I could just transfer them over.
    Thanks in advance =)

    What power supply do you have specifically?
    You don't need to put Windows 7 on both HDD's.
    The NZXT Source 220/210 is a bit better in that price range in terms of cable management and beginner build quality.
    Swap motherboard to AsRock Extreme 3 Gen 3 for future upgradibility.
    And lastly snag a cooler for the 2500k overclock. It's only $20.

    And here's most of your build in PC part picker for lowest prices:

    Didn't see the 2 there. Yeah just one HDD
    The supply is a MSI BTX 600w
    The case you linked is sold out atm. Any others you would recommend?
    What makes the ASRock better than the P67? If you say so then I will surely take your word on it, but to my lack of knowledge.
    Just wondering so I can better myself in the TECH.
