After taking your recommendations on the GPU, I think this will be final. Eventually, I will add a Thermaltake Big Water and a GeForce 6800GT. How is this?

Nice choice on the processor. Its cheap and fast. Also you can OC to like 3.7ghz with stock cooling. Also your dual channel PC400 setup should take advantage of the 800mhz bus.

What happend to your AMD rig Megadeth2 are you still gettting it or do you have it already.

Well everything seems to be ok there any ways, but i would really say go for the AMD.

I'm not getting the AMD rig. I've never had any reason to get AMD. I would like to leave it at that. I would be happy if people left more comments...thanks.

I think Intel is the better way to go with this system, better multitasking, plus the P4 will be better for animation purposes.
