i cannot pimp the gskill 6400hz 2gb kits any more than i already have,

if your looking to o/c then i would consider them

also consider a scythe ninja cooler, the retail isnt brill for over clocking

Funny you should say that as I already have the scythe ninja but forgot to mention it.

Do you need the sound card? I would have thought that the onbord sound would have been very good.

If you have a nice set of speakers, it would probably make quite a bit of difference (depending on how into your audio you are)

My friend upgraded from his standard xfi to the fatality and said it made a massive difference. I've also heard the same mentioned on other forums.

If this is the case, I can only assume the leap from onboard would be even greater
