also, has anyone bought anything from dealsonic.com? i checked them out on resellerratings.com and they have a lot of good reviews, but also a bunch of terrible reviews about RMA and returns. theres a case i want to buy, but dealsonic.com is the only place i can find that has the case
heres the case:
http://dealsonic.com/skmssialatxm.html
is it worth the risk from buying the case from these guys? i was thinking its just a case, whats the worst that could happen to it? do you guys think i should buy it from these guys?
also, it supports 4 88mm fans, but only 1 fan is included.
will this 1 fan keep my system cool enough along with the other fans like on the PSU and video card? or will i need to buy fans?

buy a 6600gt rather than the x800. Might not be best bang for buck comared to other cards, but can do most of what you want decently



i thought the x800gt was better than the 6600gt?

Just a recommendation if you are still trying to drop down the price. In terms of performance, yes the x800gt is better. (but also more expensive, 6600gts are around $150 give or take up tp $20)

Well, considering your needs it looks like you have all the right components. I'm sure you could shave off a few more dollars by getting cheaper RAM, PSU, case... you could probably find a cheaper motherboard, too (with the same overclocking potential), if you looked hard enough. But, those small things aside, everything looks fine.
