Just wanted to get a little last-minute approval by the forums
Intel C2D E6420
Thermalright Ultra 120 eXtreme (already have some Arcitc Silver 5)
Abit QuadGT
4gb Crucial DDR2 1066 PC2 8500 5-5-5-15 (already ordered really cheap from Newegg).. I know the timings are slow.. but I hope it isn't an issue
EVGA 8800GTS 320mb
Antec P180B (hopefully with the 182 improvements)
Seasonic S12 430 watt PSU or Corsair 520 watt if people think the 430 isn't enough juice.
Seagate HD's
Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit
IDE DVD-RW (from current computer)
IDE HD (for storage from current computer)
possibly an Auzuntech Sound Card if the onboard audio doesn't impress
I'm not really planning on overclocking very much, if at all. I do video editing, 3D animation, and motion graphics, so 4gb ram isn't just for bragging rights/gaming, though I do game here and there.
Not planning on ever going SLI, though CPU and GPU upgrades will be in the future, I would think 430 watt PSU should be fine for a Quad Core and faster GPU in the future?
I am hoping for a quiet computer that stays cool. I currently live in Arizona, so my room temperature is usually between 75-80 F.
