Hi whitekong, Looks pretty good, although I'd be inclined to use a 500w or a little better PSU. Particularly with the 8600 GTS card. As for the optical drive, you can get a DVD RW Dual layer job at a good price and that will also burn CDs as well plus some other features. You didn't mention the HDD in your list, so I am assuming you are going to use the one from your HP. coastie65

eMachines T5212.... Intel Pentium D 945 3.4Ghz..... evga 8600 GT 256 Mb PCI-E video card..... Realtec HD audio......2 Gb 533 Mhz DDR2 memory..... Lite on CD RW; DVD +R / RW DL optical drive...... Windows XP MCE 2005....... Antec Basiq 500w PSU......200 Gb PATA HDD
