How nice lol, well see the mobo thats 123$ there, thats more than I have to spend. Unless I can find a way to get an additional 40$ I dont see myself going over the present mobo..

Not to mention, I have to find a new mouse and keyboard. The current WIRELESS model was only 50$ for the Mouse AND keyboard, now I needa find a individual set and pay the same or less. Then On top of that, I have the nVidia FX 6800GT 256MB already selected on my list or things to by 2 of... (List 4-5 post back)

I have until friday to compile my moneys so i have a fat wad of cash here that I can count to know how many pennies I have to spend. Then I will re-calculate my figures and see what I have left over.

Im just learning about my PCU, and other stuff. I figured out that I dont need to use thermal grease on my PROCESSOR & MOBO. Just figurin out the little things I may not know when building my computer.

Where did you read that you don't need to use thermal grease on your processor? Some type of thermal compound is necessary for operation at optimum temperatures. Maybe you read that you dont need to apply extra thermal compound.

I am not overclocking, my PCU probably wont beable to handle it. I will be using the thermal compound that is already on the heatsink. The PCU I have may qualify as unstable since It came with my new case. (450w NINJA MGE). Im getting this, and just using this thermal 'tape' thats already there.
