Thanks to all who have helped me decide on components for my latest gaming rig. I settled on:

OCZ DDRAM 2x512MB| OCZ4001024ELDCPER2-K
GIGA-BYTE X800XT PLATINUM 256MB RETAIL
Lian-Li PC 6070B Aluminum Ultra Quiet
PS 500W - Antec True550
MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum
Athlon 64 FX-53
Western Digital 74 GB SATA 10K Raptor (WD740GD) X2 for RAID 0
SB Audigy2 ZS Plat Pro
Total: 3051.00 shipped


Looking forward to meeting you guys on the field of battle, now that I'll be able to play games at more than 3fps.

Thanks again!
 
Your choice in memory makes me want to cry....and for the price, I would have gotten a 6800GT or Ultra. Better performance. Nice system otherwise though. I hope your remembered to add a processor...and that you just didn't type it in your list. You'll need one of those :D
 
Yeah, went with the FX53. A couple people said that memory would be ok for a non-oc system.


What would you have done differently? If the box works out ok, I'll be ordering 2 more soon.
 
I would rather castrate myself than see a dollar of mine go to OCZ. But that decision is based on business practices and morals (or lack there of). I also would have checked the prices on the video cards. The new Nvidia cards are definitely winning the performance battle. So if the price was nearly the same, I would have gone with one of them.
