Anyone see any issues with the following spec, or any ways i can get the price down and have similar performance, (looking to overclock the chip as much as pos)
This is an upgrade for me from the spec in my sig, and the 300Gb sata drive i am transfering from my current system, leaving a 80Gb in there to sell it on.
Anything anyone would change, add or remove ?

Thanks for your replys in advance.

edit: also will this be a big performance jump for me or not much? i mostly play wow, CS:S, DAoC, so only a gaming machine really.
 
Depends, if you can max your games out now, then no you're not notice much difference.

New system will be faster, and you'll likely notice in newer games and in using aps, multi-tasking etc.....

Everything should be faster, but all i'm saying is, is that if thats the only games you play and you run at max detail you're not likely going to see much difference in games, apart from the extra effects the x1900 can render over the x800. Newer games will run nicely though.
