Well I was getting bored during a lesson at school so I went on newegg.com and compiled this system:

Mainboard: ABIT Fatal1ty FP-IN9 SLI ATX Intel Motherboard
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Kentsfield 2.4GHz
RAM: G.SKILL 4GB(2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 800
Video Card: HIS Hightech H260PRQT512DDN-R Radeon HD 2600PRO 512MB 128-bit GDDR2 PCI Express
PSU: CORSAIR CMPSU-620HX 620W
Sound: Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi
Case: COOLER MASTER Centurion 5
Monitor: SAMSUNG 941BW Black 19" 4 ms (GTG) Widescreen LCD Monitor
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 250GB 3.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard

What do you think? Will it be powerful enough? Besides all those part what cables do I need to attach everything? Or all the necessary cables come with the parts?

I think it looks good. I prefer WD to seagate HDs though.

Also, you should get all of the wires and everything you need with the system.

So I have to buy the wires separately?

Why is WD better than seagate? if they are SATA 2.0 I think speed etc is still the same.

WD is the better brand in most people's opinion (similar to Intel vs AMD).

Your wires will come with your case and parts.

But is it really better? In what? durability? speeds? ...?

I prefer Maxtor honestly. They seem to last longer in my experience.
