What are your thoughts? I may overclock a little, nothing substantial. I just want something future proof. I'm waiting on the Geforce 8800GTS to come for the graphics card.
 
Go with the DS3. I can't justify the price of that Abit, though, maybe someone else can. Nice CPU... good RAM... nice case/psu... nice HDD. You may want to look into the Seagate 7200.10 320gb instead. Its about 10MB/s faster than my WD KS drive.
 
Better than the WD3200KS? I think so, but I dont have a WD3200KS to compare it with ;) But yes, thats the model I was speaking of.
 
The only time I needed to use a floppy for drivers was when I had drives raided. But a buddy gave me a version of XP that has them all included.

You shldn't need one for just sata, but for the extra 20bucks it never hurts to have a floppy.
 
What exactly is your budget?

Anyway, I'd buy the Seagate hard drive due to the five-year warranty it has.

Around $1500 counting graphics card.
