So here it is, I think I did ok on prices/components. Let me know what you think.

NEWEGG:
C2D E4300 $169
Gigabyte 965P-DS3 $123
Mitsumi Floppy/Card Reader $19
2 for raid 0 Western Digital Caviar SE WD1600JS 160GB 7200 RPM SATA $106

OUTPOST:
Thermaltake Toughpower 700w non-modular $120
Patriot 5-5-5-12 2.0v $130 AR
eVGA 7900gs $120 AR

Best Buy:
Antec p180 $80

I could use some advice on an aftermarket cooler, I would prefer something that I would not have to attach to the back of the motherboard.

Anyone think this ram could do 4-4-4-12 @ 2.2v?

I am going to run XP on it and already have a Plextor DVD burner.

I certainly will, probably something conservative for now until I can find a good cooler.

You can take it to 3Ghz in stock cooling. Then, buy another cooler.

And don't forget to OC that 7900GS, because they are the best at it :twisted:

Thats sweet. I kind of regret getting the eVGA 7900gs because you can't step-up after using the rebate, but $120 still seems like a good deal.

Assuming that i paid €220=$290 US for my Gigabyte when it came out...that's a hell of a deal!
