What he said. I looooove mine Mr. Green the 6800GT will definatly outperform the 9800.

That processor is ok. What are you planning on doing with this system? Just gaming, or lots of other stuff too?

And second, about the RAM... if you're gettin DDR2 RAM (XMS2), why are you only getting PC3200? Go for the PC5400. Do they even make DDR2 at PC3200? www.newegg.com/Product...6820145539
