Grand Total:$682.91Its a good specs.... Agreed. Looks just fine!i would suggest a better quality power supply, like an ocz or a corsair. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139004 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817341012
as for your fans, ball bearing fans, although they have a longer life, are known to be noisier then sleeve bearing fans.
as for your video card, i suggest you spend a little more and get an 8800gt. the 9600gt, although newer, cannot out perform the 8800 gt.
one last added note, if your going to be gaming, i suggest an intel CPU and a socket 775 mobo. you are not going to find any AMD mobos that go past 590i SLI.Quote one last added note, if your going to be gaming, i suggest an intel CPU and a socket 775 mobo. you are not going to find any AMD mobos that go past 590i SLI.
Not disputing you at all, but might you explain this a little more, please?Quote from: Aegis on March 09, 2008, 03:13:45 PMQuoteone last added note, if your going to be gaming, i suggest an intel CPU and a socket 775 mobo. you are not going to find any AMD mobos that go past 590i SLI.

sure.
AMD mobos do not go past 590i. you will not find any 650i, 680i, 750i, or 780i AMD mobos.I agree with Homer. DEPENDING on your budget, I would get a newer intel cpu(1333 MHz), and a MoBo to support it.
