PSU: Corair VX450 GPU: 8800GT (I plan to possibly OC to max potential) CPU - Intel E2160 (I definitely plan to OC to max potential) Mobo - Gigabyte P35-DS3L Anything else you need to know?

I have seen a lot of debate around the web on which mobo is better. Some like the Gigabyte, some like the Abit. Since they are the same price, I'm having a really hard time choosing between the two. I plan on OC'ing the Intel E2160 as much as possible and possible OC'ing the video card. So...

Hands down I would go for the Radeon x850xt. You can find it for about $150 on these forums or elsewhere. It performs quite well considering its low price. Sub $100? I believe I heard the x800GTO was a fabulous card for the $
