and your fucked for when linux becomes mainstream (omg fanboy I know) as ATI drivers really do SUCK when it comes to nix.

Looks fine, dont know about the mainboard though, Id go for a Gigabyte but thats just me

EDiT: You could save arround 100€ which you could invest on your gfx, get some reviews about mainboard, HD and psu's

for PSU's....

"Seasonic M12+, Corsair HX/VX series are the kings now"

I'm going for a 450W VX probably, the cheapest of those I think :P

well I really like the reviews of the Gigabyte p35 boards, depending on if you want sli or not you should get one for ~ 90€ but If you want to upgrade later to a quad you'll need something different. But the Gigabyte mainboards are really compatable and very stable. Read some reviews

wheres the ram? :o wheres the DVD drive? :o

EDIT: If i would be you i woluld buy an 8800 GT now and wait untill the 9800 GT/GTX are out and thats in like 2 months. nVidia 8800 GT costs like 200 € and it can do all games @ max except cryisis.

optical media is so 2007


But I still have a DVD drive, but only for the purpose of backing up, doesn't really get used for anything else.

oke but think about the 8800 GT, you'll save some money and get a much better one later on. + that Intel + ATI doesnt cooperate so good together :P

Uniq 26 Feb 2008, 15:05

yeaeer i think that you can get _better_ with less money if you just compare PSU's and all the other stuff. Try Google like Club3D Radeon HD 3870 X2 1024 MB vs. :D
