Putting together new build to go with the 7800GTX I got the other day.

Asus A8N-SLi SE nForce4 SLi £76.32
AMD Athlon 64 3700+ San Diego 90nm OEM £135.07
Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 NCQ 250GB 8MB Cache £63.39
G.Skill 2GB DDR ZX PC3200 (2x1GB) CAS2 Dual Channel Kit £152.69
Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 4 7.1 OEM £35.19

£462.66.

Already have everything else needed. Just want some general opinions really , will it go well with the 7800GTX?.

Can't really go anymore , already at a strech to get the 2GB ram , so anything replaced has to be cheaper or same price.

Thanks :).
 
K thanks for the help :). Board I will change then as I don't really need sli now that I think about it.

As for the cpu I'm not to sure about , I looked at some benchmarks before and it seems in a lot of games the 3700 was quicker as it's clocked faster and the games was not using both cores on the X2. The machine will not be used for anything but games really ,so will the X2 still be better?. Not interested in overclocking it , so out of the box performance :).
