Machine spec, can you check please?

[Mort]

Anyone spot anything wrong with the system below? Like unmatching ram, bad mobo, different gfx card? Been a while since I specced a machine.

Can prob go up a hundred or two if needed, what ya reckon? Thx gfx card is what I am most unsure about, followed closely by the mobo, anyone offer any better ideas / first hand experience with a similar setup?

the clock and memory speeds are faster on the ATI though, is the 8800 newer tech or something?

also with the MTB am buying, it says crossfire support, will that mean I dont be able to run sli gfx cards, ie nvidia?

if thats the case and can only really run one gfx card what would you say about this MTB instead?

[Mort]

cool, thanks for the advice on the gfx card

what about the mobo?

and with the monitor theres 2 of them (dual monitor is one of only pre-requisites for me building this system), and kinda need them to be DVI like the gfx card outputs, that 20" one is analogue only

Actually that 20" dell has both DVI and Analogue, what you reckon as they both the same price?

 

[Mort]

yeah just noticed that and edited previous post

apart from the physical size + res differences i cant see any difference. So how come they are both the same price? never had a widescreen TFT before, let alone two lol

there will be heavy amounts of web dev going on with this machine, so maybe a more standard size monitor would be better, not sure.

thoughts?

edit noticed this http://reviews.cnet.co.uk/monitors/0,39030120,49285080,00.htm not the best of reviews

thanks for all the feedback by the way!
