1. AMD Athlon 64 3200

b. ASUS K8VSE DLX
2. Memory
a. Corsair CM74SD1024RLP-2700/1G 64x72 PC2700 Registered
or
b. Kingston KHX3200AK2/1G PC3200 CL2
3. Graphics (running out of allowance)
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB

This is through my company, and I have no choice for vendors... so with HDD, and fans and cd/dvd burner and a floppy, that should put me at around $1000. (shiet... forgot about PS and case)

i would go for B on both of those, and good choice on the vidcard, i'm an nvidia guy but for the price/performance that's your choice

OK... so I've decided on the Althon64 3K+, but would the supplied cooling fan be sufficient? Of course every one will say get a better cooling fan, but what?
