please rate my new system

[argoldst]

Below are the specs of my new system. Yes, I am buying from velocity because I just do not have the time to build the system myself. WIth that being said, can anyone recommend any changes? I was thinking of upgrading the ram to the new 1066 instead of the 800's.

Any feedback or recommended changes would be greatly appreciated.

850 watt PSU for a system that will draw 250-300 watts under load?

Only 1 HDD?
Nice system nonetheless :thumbsup:

Definitely a nice system. I would not waste the money to swap the RAM. Moving to 1066 from 800 will do nothing. Your mobo will clock it down to match your CPU anyways, so the extra speed will be wasted. Even if you decided to OC the system, the multiplier on the 6700 will allow you to get a huge OC using the 800 RAM and there would again be nothing gained by moving to the 1066.

If you want to upgrade the RAM, maybe move to 4 Gig
