I am in awe Langer, and looking forward to the last straight!!

sounds like a plan, fingers crossed the 'gimp' PSU will take it!

how about a ASUS 512MB RADEON HD 4650? I'm still wavering as to wether im doing the right thing to be honest, this comps just not really worth it at the end of the day... do you think i'd just be wasting cash that i could be putting towards new build in a few months?!! Many thanks for the...
