I'd like to start ordering parts by the end of the week, how does it look??

I had posted before that I was looking to start upgrading soon, and now that xmas is past, I have the cash to start ordering.

I'm open to suggestions and have gotten some great info from people already. I do plan on oc'ing. Some of you guys have some amazing setups so before I start handing out money for parts, I really wanted to get some feedback/suggestions from people that know their stuff.

I had been told that the psu is overkill, but I think it leaves me room to grow and plenty of power once it's time to upgrade the video card. I'd rather have too much now instead of worrying about getting something with more power down the road.

ASUS P5B-E
E6400
SUPER TALENT 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800
GeForce 7950gt (just not 100% sure which brand I will buy yet)
Silverstone SST-ST75ZF 750W PSU
*Also debating on what hsf I will get


Parts I am using from current rig:
74gb WD raptor
300gb maxtor sata
lite-on 52x cd burner
pioneer dvr-108
CM Stacker II case

So does this look good so far?

Thanks in advance for the help!!

Change to the p5b deluxe. In case you ever want to overclock. 😀

HSF: Tuniq Tower or Scythe Infinity

I have to give a big thumbs up for the Thermalright Ultra 120 heatsink. It's big, but very nice 🙂 You'll just need to get a low RPM fan in addition to it.

Is the p5b deluxe that much better at oc'ing than the p5b-e? I was trying to look up info on the differences, but haven't come up with anything that made sense to me. All I can tell from looking around is that the p5b-e rev 1.02 version is harder to find at the moment
