Hey all, gotta love this forum...
Now, I need some advice.. I've chosen some parts but they arnt finalized.. Want all your oppinions on these parts, and if you have time.. look at that site and find a replacement.
All the parts are from the same site for shipping reasons, so unless I reeealy have to I dont really want to go to another site just to find something like a evga 7900gtko (even tho that'd overprice my system)
Remember my budget is $1300 AUD as I live "Down Under".. all these prices are in AUD so dont go into a shock and be "your getting ripped off".. These are pretty much the cheapest prices in oz.

I'm welling to say.. drop back to a Intel Pent d 805 and change afue parts (like go with a asus mobo to overclock that pent d 805.. or some more ram whatever).
Remember, tell me what you think of these parts, wether a 6600LE is pure junk when there is a x1300 pro twice as fast (no idea) or something like that.
Thanks in advanced.
