should I change anything?

Intel Core 2 Duo E2180 "LGA775 Conroe" 2.00GHz (800FSB) - Retail £55.21

Gigabyte GA-P35C-DS3R (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 & DDR3 Motherboard £76.36

OCZ 2GB (2x1GB) PC2-6400C4 Dual Channel Platinum Revision 2 XTC Series DDR2 (OCZ2P800R22GK) £35.24

and dont forget the Arctic Freezer 7

The rest in my sig will go in their too, so the ATI Radeon X1950 PRO
Akasa 460W PSU
320Gb SATA 300 drive
etc

According to the gigabyte website, that RAM is NOT compatible

When you say not compatible do you just mean it isn't listed as compatible or do they explicitly state that it is non-compatible?

Geil PC6400 C4 is still at a fairly good price I believe and should be compatible with everything.

the Black Dragons?
