Alright guys

Looking at getting the following as my current PC is starting to show it's signs of age, what are peoples thoughts on this;

Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4Ghz
Gigabyte GA-G33M-DS2R Micro ATX Motherboard
OCZ 4GB Kit (2x2GB) 6400 RAM
Gigabyte 8800GT 256mb Graphics

And I plan to use the 2 500GB sata drives i've currently got here.

Now, I think i'm happy with the spec, but as i'm a bit pushed for space i'm looking at the Lian-Li V350B sff case, do you think i'm likely to face any problems with regard to heat issues? I've asked this in the Small form factor forums but doesn't seem to be much life there so I thought someone may be able to shed some light here...?

Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks
 
Cheers for the input.:)

I'm using it mainly for 3D work, flash and genera media design. Don't really play games all that much but I do from time to time, so I will take on board what you've said about the graphics card.

One thing I am concerned about is losing a PCI slot on the motherboard...A lot of the graphics cards i'm looking at have big coolers on the and with it being quite a small board do you think i'd lose one of the expansion slots?

Reason I ask is I have an Audigy 2 Platinum card which I wold like to use aswell as my TV card...

Alternatively, what are peoples thoughts on the on-board sound with this particular mobo?:)

Cheers!
