I'm currently running an
* xp 3200(Barton) on Asus A7N8X delux,
* gig of memory(2x256+512),
* a radeon xt9600
* Iiyama VisionMaster Pro 451 19" CRT
* Hitachi Deskstar 7K500 500GB SATA II
* Pioneer DVR-111D
* Seasonic 600w PSU

I'm thinking of upgrading the CPU/motherboard, ram and graphics card. Looking for a gaming rig that is upto video editing too, also want to get a flat screen.

Looking at intel and some of the bundles avaiable
*E6600 2.40GHz Retail / Asus P5B / 2GB GeIL PC2-6400C4 DDR2
*BFG GeForce 8800 GTS
*Viewsonic VX2025wm 20"
open to suggestions here, is the viewsonic the way to go ?

I really want a quiet PC, my current PC makes a constant hum.

Lastly I'm thinking of getting a new case,
*Antec p180 (black)

That little lot comes to about £1300 inc vat
