all looks good, might wanna splurge for a Newegg.com - Tuniq Tower 120 P4 & K8 CPU Cooler - Retail

also, what reso. you running in, you might wanna grab a 8800gts 640 for longevity purposes...

One more thing, it may be wise to wait till July 22 when the intel prices drop, then you could get a q6600 for basically the same price (a little more) than a e6600. See the exact prices at Intel Price Roadmap analyzed

i'm waiting until the price drops to get the q6600. also, the tuniq is a very good cooler.

 

[Static_11]

yup.. im not planning on buying all of this until around that time... have to get the money first! lol..

 

[ollithemagicbum]

i'm getting mine at the end of summer. i need the money too. but i'll get it.

 

[Riznarf]

static, if you have the cash, id obviously suggest a q6600 and a tuniq

 

[jonny_uk]

Nobody commented on the Logitech speakers, i have the X-530's (5.1) there less powerful than the THX versions and even these sound absolutely fantastic in games and especially music, ive got them connected to an X-fi xtreme sound card.
My house stereo hasnt been used once since i got these speakers lol sounds 10 times better with thumping bass

 

[kobe24]

i got same setup^ and same thing, i never listen to house system nemore

 

[Static_11]

i don't even think i'd need a sound card...

that mobo has HD audio / 8 channels..
nootttt too shabby.
lol

I can't wait to hear those things man.. i've been wanting a good speaker set up foreverrr.


kobe- Wow...3.2 on a quad...i can't wait to get this thing lol.

 

[psp_crazy1]

i think a corsair 620 would be better, but not by much, ocz is still very good.
