Hey Guys, I was thinking about getting this system, with some slight modifications.

http://www.a-power.com/sys/ap11-gamer64.asp
oh, and the price is in canadian, so it's not actually that overpriced :p

3500+ to either 3200 or 3000 with a thermalright heatsink.
I was thinking about ocing it, but im not sure if i need too. All I do is download and gaming.

MSI K8N NEO2-PLATINUM - ?
Not too sure about the mobo...don't know much about the neo2, i was thinking abit one instead since i know more about it

ATI Radeon 9600XT 256MB DDR to 6800 vanilla?
Not sure again...is the 6800 better then the 9600? Or is the 9600 pretty much good enough?

im going to ditch the dvd-writer since i already have the nec 3500a, and im thinking about adding an extra fan for cooling if i do oc it...

So ya, any help/advice/suggestions would be appreciated and thanks in advance! :)
