I've peiced together some new bits for a PC upgrade. Now i've built my own systems before and typically i get someone else with experiance to review and check my list to be sure i didnt fuck up. So i figured i'd post my list here and have some of you who have built systems check it over. Mostly for compatibility since i havnt built an AMD system before.
