It has been an immensely great pleasure to get to correspond with you all. If my son were older, I would definitely allow him join the forum. My wife and I agree, he is still too young. I have decided to take your advice. The hard drives are on there way, the power supply is already wrapped along with the Lian-li pc71. I’ll be ordering the 2 X 512 Corsair XMS3500C2 sometime today along with the SwifTech MCX4000. I’m actually trying to find the best price for the Corsair and the SwifTech, which in itself, is a task. After careful consideration I’ve have decided, well the forum have decided, to go with the Intel chipset which will give him good overclocking ability. Yes it will be an Abit motherboard, that is if it’s out before Xmas. (Can’t thank you enough). Not sure about the 2.66GHz, 2.8GHz or the 3.06GHz, I’ll try to ask my brother for advice about them and the sound card, very discreetly of course. The ATI 9700 pro will be the card to purchase if the NV30 isn’t out before Xmas. I guess I’m done (sigh of relief) Thanks to all.
