    Re: Here Are Parts I've Chosen

    Sorry to offend you but I think about half your **** is the OPPOSITE of what I'd choose

    Raidmax case blah blah...would look at the coolermaster selection instead

    Toshiba DVD-RAM...DVD RAM is not DVDRW...and the discs can't be used in DVD players

    You realize that's a VERY loud fan on that SK6...would go with the AX-7 and an 80mm fan with decent airflow...will cool better than the SK6 and quieter too...

    IBM hard drive wash your mouth out young man! IBM drives are the WORST....if you want 120GB get a Western Digital with 8MB cache..

    Yeah go ahead...keyboard

    If you're going to get a DDR333 board don't get DDR266 RAM...get Samsung DDR333

    Modem..fine

    I *hate* LCD monitors...they are not only small but can only one at one resolution. Get a good CRT

    Good choice Epox motherboard...

    What the hell is up with you and Raidmax, get an Antec PP412X (not those new TruePower ones)

    You don't need a proc that fast...but whatever

    Yes good sound card

    Logitech Z560 speakers if you can afford em

    PNY...nah...go with Leadtek/Gainward

    Exactly...Newegg has good service, good prices, great shipping

    If you must use Pricewatch make sure you check the reseller on ResellerRatings

    I can't believe you actually said that. My view is that there is no such thing as too fast. Too expensive is possible, but not too fast. The way I see it, if you an afford it, go ahead and get it.

    What I mean is, it's about $50 more for an extra 66Mhz? What's up with that? Sure if you can afford it get it, but a 66Mhz faster CPU isn't gonna do a whole lot, and I could do a lot more with that $50...
