Hi, I'm thinking about building my own computer, but before I bought the parts I wanted to be sure they were compatible. I have made a list of parts I like, but could someone review them to make sure there compatible.

1.) Motherboard- Micro-Star NFORCE4 SOCKET 939 ATHLON64FX ( K8N NEO4-F )

2.)Processor,CPU Cooler-Thermaltake Silent 939 cooler cl-p0200

3.) RAM- 512MB DDR PC3200 / DDR400 184-pin DIMM Memory Module

4.)Video Card- Radeon 9500 PCI card

5.)Monitor- One off old Gateway 2000 computer

6.)Keyboard&Mouse-Microsoft wired keyboard 500 & Microsoft Optical Mouse 300

7.) One that takes 3.5 floppies

8.)Hard drive- Seagate 40GB Barracuda 7200.7

9.)CD-ROM- Sony CRX320A/U 52x/32x/52x/16x Internal CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combo Drive

10.)Sound Card and Speakers- the sound card is compatible but forgot model and make, and speakers are big fat Gateway speakers that really put out!

11.)Modem- I use PCI wireless card

12.)USB PCI card- Belkin USB 2.0 Hi-Speed 3-Port ( 2 external & 1 internal ports) PCI Card

Well, you're missing a processor...and you probably don't need a USB PCI card, as your motherboard has 4, and you'll probably have 2-4 more mounted to the case. Other than that, looks good.
