I am currently toying with the idea of building myself a new system. Seeing as I'm still running my 6 year old home-built Athlon XP 3000 based system, it's about time I had a new one ! !

Looking at these parts for now:-
Asus Rampage Formula X48 DDR2 motherboard
Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 3.16GHz CPU
Corsair Dominator PC2-8500 (2x1Gb for now.. more later)
BFG GTX260oc (216 stream gpu)
Seagate Baracuda 7200.11 1Tb SATA hard drive
Pioneer DVR-216 SATA DVD-RW
NZXT Hush classic case
Enermax Infiniti 720w PSU

Was only going to get 2Gb of DDR2 for now & will get some more later. Wanted to stick with Nvidia if possible for the VGA. Will probably add a BlueRay reader/writer at a later date as well.

What do you guys think ? ? Any good ? ?

Cheers all for the replys....

Will be running 32bit Windows XP for now. Will probably wait and see what the "new" Windows 7 or whatever that's going to be called is like.

Anybody have the NZXT Classic case ? ? Is it OK for this system cooling wise etc ? ?
