Here are the specs

Abit IP35 Pro (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard
Intel Quad Core Q6600 2.4GHz S775
Tuniq Tower 120-LFB CPU Cooler (Socket 478/754/939/940/AM2/LGA775)
XFX GeForce 8800GTX 768MB DDR3 PCIE Dual DVI XT ED
4 x Crucial 1G Ballistix 240pin DIMM PC2-8500 Unbuffered

Anyone with a similar machine care to comment on performance?? Adjustments?

Thanks for your input. I thought it would be best to get the bigger PSU for future proofing and because I am planning on overclocking this baby.

What would you suggest for the SATA DVDRW?

Thanks. So this machine wont be capable of running SLI?

and how about this for the SATA DVD DRIVE

Pioneer DVR-212D 18x18 DVD±RW Serial ATA Dual Layer ReWriter - (Black) OEM

Good?
