Spec check

[benjo]

Hi all.

Going to be ordering soon, this is what i'm thinking:

Abit IP35 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard

Crucial Ballistix 2GB (2x1GB) DDR2 PC2-6400C4 800MHz Dual Channel Kit (BL2KIT12864AA804)

Scythe Ninja Plus Rev.B CPU Cooler (Socket 478/754/939/940/AM2/LGA775)

Intel Core 2 Quad Pro Q6600 "Energy Efficient 95W Edition" 2.40GHz (1066FSB) - Retail

VAT : £56.86
Total : £381.77

I'm going to be keeping my X1800XT 512 and my Seasonic S12 430w for now.

What you think?

I've got a bigger budget, can go anything up to £500, but i cant afford a new graphics card and psu.

Thanks

Thanks for the replies

The 6400 ballistix is on this week only anyway, may as well get it when its cheap.

Is the noctua considered a better cooler?
