Above build looks good but not 100% sure if RAM is compatible, P55 uses 1.65v where as AM3 uses 1.9v, thats rated at 1.7-1.9, if Stulid knows it works all good but if not you may want to dbl check

not a clue if it works, so try this corsair, which will still clear the third party cooler,

to be perfectly honest, I should have just specced corsair ram in the first place! it just works!

Stulid's spec is great, but OP please note that you might still struggle in Crysis

. With my i5 OC'd to 4GHz and 5850 I have to turn off aa for acceptable fps if detail is maxed! Hopefully the 470 will give you the extra you need

. You could maybe consider making a few savings here and there, or perhaps going AMD to try and sqeeze a 5870 in, but personally I think that spec is well balanced and a winner. Nothing will ever run Crysis.
