Help with the rest of my new machine

[connoleg]

Looking for a new rig and got some recommendations here - thanks chaps.

This is what I have decided (hopefully) and was after some help with mobo, psu and RAM to go with this lot:

Your basket

Gainward ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2 2048MB GDDR5 TV-Out/Dual DVI/HDMI (PCI-Express) - (£387.74)
Intel Core 2 Duo E8600 LGA775 'Wolfdale' "Overclocking E0 Stepping" 3.33GHz (1333FSB) - (£199.74)
Antec Twelve Hundred Ultimate Gaming Case (£111.61)

Thanks

get an asus p5q p45 board to go with it
some 2X2gb pc2 6400 ram
and a corsair hx520 or more psu

what screen are you running this on?
less than 24" would be a waste for the X2 imo

perhaps save some money on the cpu and go for an e8500

I'm looking for a 24" maybe the S2409W or if someone reckons there's something better please let me know

thanks

Any Particular RAM better than others?
Worth getting an OCZ SSD drive for Vista 64 bit? http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HD-005-OC&groupid=701&catid=14&subcat=910&name=OCZ%20Core%20V2%2030GB%202.5"%20SATA-II%20Solid%20State%20Hard%20Drive%20(OCZSSD2-2C30G)

Thanks for your help guys
