Crucial Ballistix 2GB (2x1GB) DDR2 PC2-6400C4 800MHz Dual Channel Kit (BL2KIT12864AA804) £86.99 1 £86.99

all thats left to order now is my Graphics card and a DVD/CD-RW

waiting for the R600 series to be released so the 8800GTX prices will drop

The 8800 GTX wont drop in price, not enough to justify the wait anyway.

Hmmm... it might
