Getting performance parts for your car is a lot like modding out your stang
Allways gives me a chubby
Looks like you've got a sweet system there. Did you already buy the parts, or is that what your planning on getting? If you haven't bought the parts yet, I hope you don't mind if I make a few suggestions...
-Go with Intel on the chip (stick with Epox for the MoBo). I use to be a diehard AMD fan myself, but since Intel released their 533FSB, AMD just can't keep up. Not to mention, AMD runs super HOT. It's difficult to keep my 1.7 GHz AMD cool. My 2.4 GHz Intel runs at a beauitful 34c under load.
-I would go with Radeon for the Video Card. They are the "NEW" gaming card. They spank Invidia's cards like they were V6 slowmaros.
-If you can afford it, try to get a Trinitron Monitor from Sony. My 21" is mind boggling clear.
My GF is always complains at me for upgrading my PC. I guess that what you get when your a computer nerd for a living
