Ok guys, I have.....

AMD64 3400
1GB PC 3200 RAM
2x 80GB SATA Hard Drives
7900 GTS PCI-E Gfx Card.
Asus Kn84E Mobo
All housed in an Antec Sonata II case.

Now, Im running Vista - a bit slow with the setup I have at the mo....

Someone bring me up to date please with spec suggestions.

No real need for gaming, although a decent ability would be nice in case something catches my eye. (into Flight Sim and UT2004 - not tried UT3)

Looking to spend around £500ish
 
Came up with the following to give you an idea, could add an aftermarket cooler to put on the q6600 help keep it cooler and quieter:

BFG GeForce 8800 GT OC 512MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail £99.99 (£117.49)

G.Skill 4GB DDR2 PQ PC2-6400C5 (2x2GB) CAS5 Dual Channel Kit (F2-6400CL5D-4GBPQ) £51.99 (£61.09)

Abit IP35 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard £64.99 (£76.36)

Intel Core 2 Quad Pro Q6600 "Energy Efficient SLACR 95W Edition" 2.40GHz (1066FSB) - Retail £116.99 (£137.46)

Sub Total : £333.96

VAT : £60.01
Total : £402.92
 
LOL - I feel so lost, that went straight over my head.

Ive been buying/building with stuff from OCUK since my 850 Athlon and Mobo combo back in the day, but since the socket 757 A64 3400 I have been a bit out of touch with it.

Quad Core - Damn, I missed Dual Core altogether !
