Thanks again for great feedback!
I am planning on a different PS and going to the 4950 ATI card. I will probably be going to a different case as well, I have a buddy that highly recommends one that I can pick up at Fry's on sale, I don't remember what it was though. I need to update my wishlist, I'll get to that tonight.
I have used ASUS and Gigabyte boards in the past and have been happy woth both of them. I was just browsing newegg and this one had the features I was looking for at the right price so I picked it.
I won't need a large HD in this machine. I already have a machine that acts as a file server for the home network. I also have 2x 350Gb 3 MB/s Seagate that will be RAID 0'd. This machine won't be used for email or web browsing, not even to download addon's.
I am not sure I understand why the RAM I picked is too fast. I thought I would want it to match the FSB speed of the MB. Is that not the case?
Thanks again!
