Exactly. My upcoming PC:
Intel Core2 Duo E6850, Asus P5KR, Kingston DIMM 2048MB DDR II 800MHz KHX6400D2LLK2/2G, 8800GT 512, Creative Labs X-Fi mX Xtreme Gamer, Samsung SH-S203N black, Hitachi Deskstar 7K500 HDS725050KLA360 - 500GB SATA II, Chieftec GX-01BW-OP Case +
Chieftec CFT-650-14C 650W PSU
However, I cannot buy a 8800GT card - they are out of stock  |
