New PC!

I just finished ordering parts to build my new PC.
My older Pentium 4 ( wich still runs fine ) ain't up to date annymore.
After a lot of research, i came up with this :

P5E motherboard 775 Socket
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 ( 2 x 3000 Mhz )
Corsair DIMM 4 GB DDR2-1066 Dominator EPP Kitt
Arctic-Cooling Freezer 7 Pro CPU cooler
Antec Nine Hundred Case
Samsung SpinPoint F1 750GB internal HDD
XFX8800GTX 768Mb

I think it will do just fine, anny comments however are welcome.

Nice!
My main box is an AMD duel core but I have a P4 extream 3.83ghz laptop. What OS are you going to run? 4gb of ram will only show all 4gb on Vista x64 right?

Sweet!

I do a lot of video editing so I can understand "memory intensive" lol. Nice rig! I am going to need to build one myself soon. Mine is about 3 years old. AMD 64 x2 4600+ Overclocked to 3.1ghz 3gig DDR dual Channel, Dual Nvidia 8600 gts video cards. 2 500gb hard drives.

But the technology has bypassed me now and being the tech addict I have to get the new stuff! lol!
