Forget what everyone said, your system will ROCK! Just make sure you have enough ventilation for that rig, cuz those RDrams run HOT!

Those who are saying he is limiting overclock because of the RDRAM are not entirely correct. You can lower the ram multiplier and overclock to higher speeds. e.g. you can run PC900 at 150fsb and still outperform the ddr platforms at same fsb.

How would that be when many are running 400mhz ddr at 150fsb and getting 3000+mb/s...That is above what pc900 is....pc800 is around 2400's. At 333mhz ddr I am alreadyabout 200 above that...

So lowering the multiplier means he is still getting less.

i would give it a 8:

a perfect 10 might be a better cdrw, using ddr instead of rdram, and a ti4600 for video card. overall, this is a very nice rig. good choice!

Really? First time that I ever heard of that. No doubting you at all.
