    Welcome to Computer Help Forums 2yaaung,

    All your hardware is compatible. The mobo does have onboard video.
    Unless you have external desktop speakers you will need a sound card.

    Hey 2yaaung.

    If you got a sound card you would still need speakers, but you are correct, your motherboard of choice does have built in/onboard audio, so you won't need an additional sound card. Not sure if Allheart misread or something, but you won't need a separate sound card to output audio.

    As Allheart stated it has onboard audio too but if you are looking to use this system for anything other than typical everyday work, then you might want to consider buying a PCI-E card. But that goes for things such as gaming or video editing etc.

    As she is currently not aorund, I will also add in that the hard drive you have chosen is a SATA III capable drive, but your motherboard only has SATA II ports. This isn't a problem, it just means don'[t expect to be getting the super high transfer speed that the harddrive description may talk about. SATA II is still very fast :)

    It all depends on what kind of things you will be using this system for. I wouldn't recommend getting a single 1GB stick of RAM, I would suggest a minimum of 2GB for a 32bit system, or 3gb if you can afford it for optimal performance. If you are looking for a 64bit system then I would say 4GB would be more than enough for XP, but look towards 6GB for Vista/Windows 7 64 bit.

    If you cna give us the intended use, it is easier for us to help advise you :)
