Get the OCuK 8800 GTX, I mean its £94 cheaper, also I'd get the X-Fi Music sound-card, don't be deceived into thinking because it sais "Gamer" in its name that's its neccasarily better at gaming that the Music edition other than that it looks good.

Good choice with the Q6600, you cant go wrong with them for how cheap they are, and yes all P35 Motherboards support Intels new 45mn CPU's.

PCI-E 2.0 will be coming out with the new X38 Motherboards and Nvidia's new graphic card will be PCI-E 2.0, but don't worry its backward compatible so it will be able to run on your board.

will there be a noticable bottleneck on the non pci-e 2.0 mobo's with the new 9800gtx's?

also what are the estimated release dates for the cpu and gpu?

Do not get the pioneer dvd writer, i have had non-stop problems with burning cd's and there is still no fix for this

Also, get the xtreme music instead of the gamer
