Hi RonA,

I added prices to my shopping list. Overall there's about $1500 in parts. You can get everything on Amazon except the CPU, which I found other places.

On the CPU, I'd recommend getting the one with the part number ending in "T". That denotes low power, about 35W. That low power is an enabler for the NoFan CPU to successful. NoFan says that it works up to 80W I think, but I read some stuff online where a user said they needed a case fan to keep the temperature reasonable under load. My thinking is why risk it. PARIS shouldn't be asking much of the CPU.

The CPU cooler means low profile RAM might be needed. The higher profile RAM has some extra heat sinking I believe. Again, my thought is why hassle with a potential interference. I'm not going to overclock this system so I don't need the extra heat sinking.

Also checkout pcpartpicker.com and click the System Builder menu pick. Very useful for putting together a system.
