definitely go with a 3800. why are you getting a crossfire mobo, but getting a 7900? if you don't plan on using crossfire or sli, there's no need on spending the extra money on the mobo. also i'd get a lite-on or nec burner instead of the sony, should be around the same price though. oh and do you need to get xp pro, if you're not going to utilize its networking features and what not, just go with xp home or mce 2005.
 
If you make a post that lists this out so I don't have to click 20 links I'd be happy to look at it.

Lazy!


With that said, everything looks good but like someone else stated why go with a crossfire board and that card?
 
Lazy? How about arrogant. Someone comes on here and makes a post asking for help and in doing so expects me to take my time opening and closing windows. Perhaps your time isn't very valuable, but mine is. Not all of us have to ask if you want fries with that on a daily basis. I am more than willing to give my help because I'm a nice guy, but people have to at least make it easy for me to do so. To do otherwise is just selfish. What is truly lazy is someone who makes a post like that and then expects to get answers from the community.
 
IMO the case is horrible and overpriced, but I suppose thats all relative isn't it.

What's this computer going to be used for? What's the budget?

arround $2k
 
Would a 500w PSU be ok or not? We are only going with 1 video card and 1 300gb HDD and 1 74Gb not the 2 250's. And the mobo last poster sugested.
 
You're better off getting one good video card rather than SLI. You'll save on the complexity, power, increase cost of power supply, noise, etc.
