So, I'm looking to building a new PC. I have a budget of $500 this time around, and I wanted to know if any of you see any flaws with this build, or see ways it could be improved.

For a grand total of $495.95
I already have HDDs and a graphics card.
Thanks in advance.

Centurion wins.
...
I wonder why more people buy the 300 than the centurion then
But sure go with the one you want seeming its more technically correct.
He might want to save money? :/
Maybe I'm buying it because it's better. I don't need a computer with 90 blue LED lights either way.
I have the 955 and I can personally vouch for it. You made a great choice!
Whats the gpu
I really don't see why the GPU matters.
ATI Raedon HD 4650.
With the rest of the build being $500, I don't have the money to swap that out.
Urm well if your gaming the GPU is the most important part..
Not to sound like a dick, but I'm not worried about the GPU. I just wanted to know if the processor fits in the mobo, if the mobo fits in the case, if anything isn't compatible with anything else. If there is a better part I can use to replace what's there for =/+ $20. Those types of things.

Actually...I do have a GPU question. Would it be better to get another Raedon HD 4650 and crossfire it, or to get a new graphics card altogether?
How the hell does crossfire work exactly? Do you need two of the same card or just two cards both crossfire ready?
And I'm not sure if that particular motherboard is crossfire compatible. It isn't.[/del]
The corsair, although being a great PSU, is probably too expensive for your budget.
OCZ have great deals on newegg :)
