Putting the final touches to a new gaming rig.. Not going crossfire so i don't feel i need a stronger psu... But I'm always interested to hear other peoples opinions.

Dominator DDR2 1066 4gig
ASUS EAH4850 4850
Caviar SE16 640GB

Drop the 1066 ram to 6400 ram: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-086-OC on sale or the g.skill for a few more quid. http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showp...2GB) CAS5 Dual Channel Kit (F2-6400CL5D-4GBPQ)

and really if you can go for the ATi 4870 as you might find the 4850 doesnt quite cut it in say 7 months or whatever. And perhaps change the hdd to the samsung f1 500GB but this really depends on how much space you need. As the F1's are generally considered faster, less noiser and cooler.
