Glad to hear you took our advice! If you wanted to, you culd let me know a budget on CPU/mobo and I could help. Actually for the mobo, get a P35 chipset. They're highly overclockable and support Intels upcoming 45nm in '08.
A mid to lower end C2D, that gigabyte mobo, Curcial Ballistix, and a nice heatsink would overclock amazingly.
The Gigabyte P35-DS3R. It's an AWESOME overclocking board.
The only reason I run Vista is for DX10. I dual boot Ubuntu 7.04 and just keep Vista for gaming.
Ultimate isn't going to do anything for you Premium can't. Go 32-bit. 64-bit is another year MAYBE. ATM, 64-bit is borderline usless. I don't even know of any Anti-virus software for it. And it's not like games can use 64-bit to their benefit.
the IP35 PRo is a great board.. but its pricy... so here at the forum we like the gigabyte p35-ds3l or ds3r (ds3l if you have no need of RAID)
